How am I losing money selling at a higher price than I bought for?

Posted by: klc2hbk (a.k.a del_WQN_klc2hbk) on Mar 14, 06:32

I bought 20,000 shares at $63.83 and sold for $64.17. It says the purchase price was $1,289,366.00 and the selling price was $1,270,566.00. By my calculations, the purchase price should have been $1,276,600.00 and the selling price should have been $1,283,400.00 for a profit of $6,800.00. Can someone explain this to me?
