English term or phrase: Realised/unrealised PNL
Hello coworkers,

another technical and recurring concept in the world of finance which seems rather easy to grasp but not that easy to translate.
PNL stands for Profits aNd Losses. Your PNL is "realised" when you have sold a position (thus realised some gain or lost money) and "unrealised" when your position is still held (the gain or loss exists on paper but not on money as long as you didn't sell).

How to translate?
Pertes et profits réalisés/non-réalisés ? L'expression me semble plus comptable que liée au monde du trading.

Merci d'avance

Explanation:
Je suis des marchés financiers et même en français on utilise le terme P&L plutôt que pertes et profits mais je n’ai pas le contexte de votre traduction. Tout le monde comprend les deux en tout cas!

neutral  Germaine: mais ce n'est pas du tout ce dont parle l'extrait en question.// 1. Moi aussi: ...sold a position = ...vendu un placement; position held = placement conservé. No winning/losing position. 2. Ghits: No result for "position perdante réalisée".

  -> Il me semble que l'extrait parle bien de positions de trading. Je vois nettement ces deux mots clés dans la question.
