I think there is a bug in PnL% and PnL+Div% calculation under ALLOCATION tab. It seems to be calculating the % using Current Value as the base.
Hi there,
It is not a bug but a feature 
You can actually choose between cost base or current value.
This url will help you choose cost based → Portfolio's Stock Distribution

Hi Evan, I noted the feature to switch between Cost base or Current value to see the % change accordingly.
What i meant for potential bug was: In ALLOCATION tab, when i look at individual stocks in the Sector i defined, I noticed some shares’ PnL% is -299.7% for example. Error?
Hi Kevin,
I see what you are saying.
I suppose you mean that when you use value based, the P&L percentage change can be >100%.
The formulae of P&L % change (when in value based mode) = P&L / current value
Hence it is totally possible that P&L > current value. As such, I believe you are right. Only allocation should change dynamically based on the chosen factor of Cost based or Value based but P&L% should always be = P&L / Cost since P&L itself is based on cost.
Will make the change shortly.
Cheers,
Evan
Done. Pushed the changes. Please verify. Thanks!
Looks good now! Thanks Evan.
