In Personal Stock Monitor v2.5 and v2.5.1, value and gain are calculated using Bid for long positions and Ask for short positions, instead of Price. This gives a more accurate representation of current value and net gain. Note: Due to confusion caused by making this change the default, v2.5.2 makes this an option, available under Options->General Preferences. This option is off by default.
