Please can someone explain what the capital gain would be in the following example and how to express it on HMRC SA108 etc:


18/2/16 BUY 150 shares in X @ £2 = £300
19/2/16 SELL 150 shares in X @1.50 = £225
7/3/16 BUY 100 shares in X @ £2.20 = £220
15/3/16 SELL 100 shares in X £3 = £300
16/3/16 BUY 80 shares in X @ £3.50 =£280
9/3/16 SELL 80 shares in X @£4 = £320
