Experience
I retired in 1996 at the old age of 39 by using city based utilities and leap call options. on stocks like ibm and wal mart because you can control these stocks for 2 years for ten cents on the dollar.
As of 1998 I got married and went to work driving Big Rig in 2004 so I could provide my 2 daughters,who are 4 and 8 as of 2007, with QUALITY AFFORDABLE health insurance. THIS job still allows me to trade but will cause you a slightly longer wait for any answer.. I apologize for This but my families welfare comes first..

Question
please let me know how to record from investment statement : Prior transactions settling/canceled, and Net unsettled purchase/sales. If i had a stock which was on the purchase list, and was included in the daily transaction but then the same amount was as Net unsettled purchase/sales , next month the note for the same transaction was Prior transactions settling/cancelled. i don't understand how to record it.thanks.

Answer
OK YOUR QUESTION IS VERY disjointed.

Am I correct you want to know how to record your buy and sell transaction.

If that is the case

then this is what I do

If i buy 500 shares

I immediately enter it on  form schedule D 1

the Irs tax form

the first column is the amount of the purchase  500 shares

and the name of the security I will use cat for caterpiller

the second column is the date bought

the third column is the date sold

the fourth column is the amount you paid

call your broker for this if you cant find it on your statement

the fifth column is the amount you sold the position for

the 6th column is the result from subtracting column 5 from column 4

that result is negative if you had a loss and positive if you had a gain

this is what I do

good luck
