How is Unrealized Profit/Loss calculated?
Ans: The notional or unrealized profit is calculated by comparing the last traded price with the average buy price of the Open Position (that is, the Net Quantity). The Total P&L is the addition of the Realized and the Unrealized Profit. For example, on a day if you buy 100 shares of ACC at an average price of Rs.200 and sell 20 shares at an average price of Rs.220, then you have a net buy position of 80 shares in ACC. Suppose the market price of ACC is Rs.225. Then the Unrealized profit or loss is (225-200)*80= Rs.
