Realized and Unrealized Profit on CubePlus:

Q: How is realized profit calculated on CubePlus?

A: Realized profit on CubePlus is calculated when a trade is squared-off, factoring in closed F&O and intraday equity positions. It’s important to note that when a CNC trade is squared-off during the day, it doesn’t impact the realized profit. However, the P&L from an intraday CNC trade that has been squared off is included in the available margin on CubePlus.

Q: What about unrealized profit on CubePlus?

A: Unrealized profit on CubePlus is determined by marked-to-market losses associated with open F&O and intraday equity positions, considering these losses as unrealized profit. These losses reduce the available balance, but the benefit of marked-to-market profits cannot be used in the available margin. In cases with open positions, the unrealized profit is calculated based on the net result of those positions.

Example Scenario:

In a scenario where position A incurs a loss of ₹100 and position B generates a profit of ₹50, the resulting unrealized profit will be -₹50. This negative value will be subtracted from the available margin. However, if position A experiences a loss of ₹100 while position B generates a profit of ₹150, the unrealized profit will amount to ₹0. This is because the benefit of the profit cannot be utilized to increase the available margin. Similarly, the realized and unrealized profit will be negative in case of losses.
