Hi Karel: I like it! I want it!

>>>There is an amusing way to calculate avergage share price in AIM. Take Initial Investment (cash+equity) - Current Cash Reserve. That's is the amount of money that you spent on equity. Divide by the number of shares. Some people don't like this, as all your profits lower the average share price, and may even lead to negative 'average' prices.<<<

I hope I can have a negative cost / share someday!

But seriously I do not know how else you would do it if you were going in and out of the same shares.

Maybe: (cost of all purchases - all sales)/ # SHARES still owned. I think that would work. Make sure you take trading costs into account!

Tom Have you been doing this long enough to have a negative cost / shares?
