>> Done that. Thanks, it was helpful. Now i see that the problem is that the prices accounted arent exact (ex. 5 MLSU stocks are priced at 0.0005 total instead of 5200!). Where do i alter the prices? Oh and are the stocks priced separately after each new transaction, or does a new price apply itself to all previous transactions? (ex. if i bought 1 MLSU stock at 10US, then later another at 12USD would the total be 22USD or 24USD)
