HiTech, Get out a piece of paper and do it "longhand". You will see that when the price dropped from 35 to 21, the PC was then larger than the stock value. I know it's hard to comprehend at first, but as the numbers change, all sorts of things happen. Give it a try and you will see. Use the progression 20,35,21,40. Doing it yourself is the only way to see. It would take me a half hour to detail it here. (Hint: once you sold the first time, you only had 168 shares X 21=3528, which is less than the PC of 5000). That's why we use software. Doing it longhand is too taxing on the brain! C-ya D1
