Knowing how to calculate stock gain or loss percentage helps you see if your shares on the Nigerian Exchange made money.
In simple words: Learning how to calculate stock gain or loss percentage is just finding your profit or loss as a share of your original money. Think of it like checking your gain after selling yams in the market.
For example: If you buy shares for 100 Naira and the price goes up to 120 Naira, your gain is 20 Naira. Divide 20 by 100 to find your rate.
Remember:
- Always use your original buying price.
- Beginners can practice this safely.
- The NGX shows daily price changes.
