<p>The -100.72 and 2,881,828.95 values are nonsense.</p>

<p>I am not able to replicate the issue. I don't know why the cost
basis is so exaggerated, which causes the % change error.</p>
<p>Would it be possible to see a screen shot of the Securities
detail window for this security. And the cost basis report edited
for this security only.</p>

<p>I did a test with a new security GE 200 short at 28.80 and did
not see any issue, I created a dummy order for TSLA on Saturday and
see the issue.<br>
I than added BRK-A shorted one share at 240000 on 4/26 and it never
changes cost basis or anything. I edited it ti be a trade on 4/20
and nothing changes.<br>
This screen is attached as well.</p>
<p>Note I am running the newer version now as well.<br>
(2015.3) 1175</p>

<p>I am hitting the match lots issue, what a PITA. Going to try the
preview version.</p>
<p>"Hi Kc8apf, Can you try upgrading to latest preview release of
Moneydance from here:</p>

and see if that fixes the issue that you're seeing?</p>

<p>It looks like it grabs info from old entries and this than
screws up the calculation. If I start with a stock I have no
history with it is fine.<br>
It seem to be grabbing data that is not relevant to the current
positions, and the lots matching mess makes it worse.</p>
<p>For now I will just manage open positions and delete all closed
trades. When you guys find a fix for this and for the close<br>
the match lots pop up let me know.</p>
<p>Regards,<br>

<p>There is a bug in the cost basis that we are working on.</p>
<p>On the lot match issue, please check your version of Moneydance.
There have been a number of tweaks to the lot match function in
build 1204 which you can download here: <a href="http://infinitekind.com/preview">http://infinitekind.com/preview</a></p>
