problem with specifying lots to sell
Last year my broker sold some stock (of which I had multiple lots) to minimize capital gains. This involved selling more recently purchased stock as well as some of my oldest stock. No problem I thought and everything looked good - portfolio and security transaction details matched up fine.I recently has to sell more stock and noticed on the choose lots screen of the sell transaction that the number of shares available does not match what I have - it seems to be off by the number of shares that I sold when I specified the lots to sell as noted above. It also shows the dates of the individual lots that I completely sold (which 0 shares available).Because I originally entered the smaller more recent purchased stocks as reinvestment of dividend I tried deleting them and entering the dividend and buy separately but when I go to sell the stock using either minimize cap gains or user specify I get the same problem with the total number of share in that lot screen!!as an FYI the Capital gains report shows all the stock being sold from the earliest purchased lot.Any help would be appreciated thanks.
