    If the number of shares is right you might have a price dated in the future or a wrong price listed for the current date. Edit the price history to check. Or even a transaction dated in the future. And I wouldn't worry about small differences like under $10 due to rounding.

    Re: small differences. Q uses traditional 5/4 rounding, while Fidelity Investments truncates dollar amounts.

    So, with even 3 decimal digits being used by Fidelity there is frequent penny differences in Q reported position amounts vs Fidelity amounts. Multiple this by 10 to 15 positions (in some accounts) and the difference can be 10 to 15 cents in any one account.
