You may choose to buy many more if you would like to diversify. Identify which corporations you have purchased, the purchase price on June 15, 2020, and the number of shares of each stock purchased. Keep this information.

Step 2: Record a minimum of 12 different pieces of data from June 15, 2020 to today, August 4,2020 (choose random dates between these dates to check the progress of the stocks you have purchased, dates should be at least 5 days apart). you should have 12 pieces of data that can be recorded so you can verify the progress of each of your stock purchases.

For each stock that you purchase, you should have 12 dates to record sequentially.

Step 4: On a separate page, calculate the difference between the purchase price of each stock and the day you chose to sell each stock to determine if you lost or made money.
