I think I found a bug with the CMC markets Profit/Loss screen. Unless I'm going crazy or doing math wrong. Can someone check my work?

This is today's trades on HIO, from the Order History page (into a CSV):

Nevermind the measy $25 profit that I took or the fact my remaining holdings are under water...
So you can see I made four BUYs and one SELL. I bought 12000 shares for $8754.60, so the average price was 0.73
I then sold 3000, and had 9000 shares left that originally cost me $6839.70. The average price for my remaining shares goes to 0.76

This is where it gets weird, on the CMC page it's still showing 0.73 as the average price, and therefore showing the cost incorrectly too. Screencap from the page:

So it still has the original average price, and is multiplying that by Units Held to get $6565.95, which is not what the 9000 shares cost me.
Am I missing something or are those values incorrect?

...HIO closed strong and I should get my cash out tomorrow with more than $25

Hey Grant.
i think I have had this before and per post in DT thread for today I think its a lag issue. I think after a set time if you refresh the whole window the price will update. I use chrome so I mean refresh that, not the CMC / ANZ refresh icon. from memory takes an hour or so. Suspect its to do with trade confirmations. Cheers
