How to Calculate Stock Profit

Stock profit is the difference between what you sold your shares for and what you paid for them. Multiply the number of shares by the purchase price and add any buy commission to get your total cost. Multiply the shares by the sell price and subtract any sell commission to get your proceeds. The difference between the two is your profit (or loss).

Your percentage return divides that profit by the total amount you originally invested. Including broker commissions on both sides gives you a true, net picture of how the trade performed.
