Bob, make one entry on schedule D for each purchase. Divide
the shares you sold pro rata among the purchases (according
to the proportional number of shares), including prorating
the commissions and other costs.

I'm assuming all of your losses/gains have the same character
(short term, according to your post). If they have different
characters, say some short, some long, some intermediate,
you have to divide those out among their applicable sections
of Schedule D.

There are other ways, but if you don't have a large number
of transactions, this is probably the simplest overall.
