Is it profitable to liquidate stocks?

Closing a position refers to the behavior of investors manipulating some stocks to sell. Whether they make a loss or gain after closing their positions depends on the investor's position cost, closing procedure cost and closing price, that is, when the closing price is higher than the position cost and the profit brought by the difference can make up for the procedure cost, they make money; on the contrary, when the closing price is lower than the position cost, they make a loss.

For example, if the cost of a stock held by an investor is 9 yuan, the number of shares held is 4,000, and it is sold at the share price of 10 yuan, and the selling procedure fee is 50 yuan, then the income of the investor after liquidation = 4,000× (10-9)-50 = 3,950 yuan.

If there is a forced liquidation or short position, it will lose money, usually in a margin account, that is, investors borrow money to buy stocks or borrow securities and then sell them. Securities companies will set a liquidation line to get out of danger. When investors touch the liquidation line and lose money without additional margin, the securities company will forcibly close the position.

Do you really understand liquidation?

Closing a position is usually used for investment stop loss or take profit, that is, investors choose to sell all the shares they hold, which is called closing a position. There is also a situation called forced liquidation.

For example, Xiaoer sells strawberries, and now the purchase price of strawberries is 10 yuan/kg. I only have 100 yuan in my hand, and I can only buy 10 kg, but the orchard requires at least 100 kg to enjoy the purchase price of 10 yuan. So Xiao borrowed 900 yuan from an organization and collected 1, 000 yuan to buy goods. At this time, if the strawberries in the market rose to 15 yuan/kg, Xiao directly earned 500 yuan, (15x100-1000 = 500), which is equal to five times the profit of the principal.

However, if the price of strawberries drops to 9 yuan/Jin, only strawberries from 900 yuan will be left, but 900 yuan borrowed them from an institution. Once the total price of strawberries is less than 65,438+000 yuan, the small part has been lost. At this time, if Xiao does not continue to increase investment, an institution will forcibly withdraw all strawberries, which is called forced liquidation, also called short position.
