# Intraday P/L

[Table of Contents](https://longbridge.com/sg/en/support/toc.md)

### Intraday P/L

Intraday P/L refers to the cumulative P/L from the previous trading day’s closing price to the current trading day’s session.

**Calculation formula:** Intraday P/L = (current price \* qty) – (previous closing price \* previous closing qty) + current selling volume - current buying volume

**Case 1:**

Xiaoming holds 100 shares of Alibaba (BABA), and the holdings are as follows.

**Current price**

**Qty**

**Previous**

**closing price**

**Previous**

**closing qty**

**Current selling volume**

**Current buying volume**

200 HKD

100 shares

190 HKD

100 shares

0

0

According to the formula, the intraday P/L is (200 \*100) – (190\*100) + 0 -0 = 1000 HKD

Intraday P/L: +1000HKD

**Case 2:**

Xiao Ming holds 100 shares of Alibaba (BABA) at the opening. He first sells 50 shares at the price of 202/share and then buys 50 shares at the price of 198/share. The holdings are as follows.

**Current price**

**Qty**

**Previous**

**closing price**

**Previous**

**closing qty**

**Current selling volume**

**Current buying volume**

200 HKD

100 shares

190 HKD

100 shares

10100 HKD

9900 HKD

According to the formula, the intraday P/L is (200 \* 100) – (190 \* 100) + 202 \* 50 – 198 \* 50 = 1200 HKD

Intraday P/L: +1200 HKD

**Note:**

1.  The intraday P/L only calculates the actual holdings, excluding transaction-incurred fees such as handling fees.
2.  If you liquidate and open a position within the same day, the intraday P/L will continue to be calculated using the data at the time of liquidation.
