@Hstig, could you give me something to base the calculations on? Shouldn't the ave buy price not be affected by sales? Anyone else know? Even so, the%gain or loss doesn't affect your standing, only your current holdings, cash on hand and tax owed do.

How's it look now? If at first you don't succeed; call it version 1.0.

What should your remaining average cost be?
At the moment I do this (pseudocode), for a sale, the number of shares is negative:
price_per_share = 0;
Repeat for all transactions of the same stock symbol;
price_per_share = price_per_share + number_of_shares*stock_price/number_of_shares;
End repeat;

It'll suck to see all the cash I invested lose a big chunk, but if we get a big correction, and it looks like the recovery begins (again assuming I'll be able to recognise that) I'll pull out as much as I can from my homeloan and go bargain hunting...
