Hi

can anyone tell me the difference between account value and portfolio value. I have £0 in cash but my account is saying £2706 for account value and portfolio is £2708. Live position is about £10 in profit

Also, when i add up all the costs of my recent purchases they come to £2701.40 but I’ve only invested £2700 since new financial year. How is that possible?

Thanks

Alan

@Alan212 Portfolio is the amount of equity you hold (your investments). The account value is portfolio + free funds.

DM me your account’s email address & I’d be able to provide you with the exact calculations regarding your account.
