how can I effectively invest money and make a profit of it?thank you very much for your comments and suggestions.
Does anybody know of any other ways to profit from the financial markets other than the regular ones (buying stocks and hoping they will go up).
I already know of: Shortselling, options, futures, derivatives, arbitrage, gearing ……
I think the difference is that cost of sales is the total of sales that the company has carried out, and cost o stock is the value of stock that it holds.
I want to make the following trade using options. Can you tell me my potential profit and loss?
Stock trades at $38 per trade.
I buy a $40 put for $3.00 per contract and sell a $40 call for $.60. Can you take me through how the maximum loss is arrived at. I am trying to minimize my loss.
What do I put in as my investment in this equation? The only information I have is an income statement that has total net sales, total cost of goods sold, and total expenses.
I have a small portfolio of shares which I would like to track the profit and loss on. I have shares in some companies which I have bought at various different prices, I need to be able to see what the mean value of the stocks I hold for each company.
Could somebody please recommend some software for doing this? Ideally free software 
I have tried using Google finance, but it doesn’t seem to do what I need.
Many Thanks
