Are you trying to track the profit and loss of swing trading stocks match your brokerage statements? This spreadsheet is designed for the input of going long or short stock as individual transactions including, stop targets, notes, trade reference numbers.
The sheet allows input of the purchase or sale of stocks, ETFs, and dividends. It allows for both selling (short) and buying (long) and requires the input of the opening and closing of each transaction including commission fees. The profit (or loss) is then calculated and displayed on a per transaction basis.
Example: a trader wants to buy a stock that is about to breakout. They want to enter long at a specific entry price, and set a stop order to protect from large losses. This spreadsheet uses the traders account balance and preferred risk to calculate exactly how many shares a trader would purchase.Ā
