What should I take note of when investing in Blue Chips, and how should I chart my profits/losses?

I have started investing for ~5 months, it was in the last 2 months that I had wanted to do a sheet, late start, I know.

  1. Should I jot down the costs at the start of the month, or in mid-month when actual purchase begins? (Unsure if there are any price change in between)
  2. I do not have the price information for ABF/STI at June. Are there any platforms that I can use?
  3. How should I best determine if I am having a profit/loss? Do I check by average of the number of months I have invested?

I agree that stocks.cafe is good. It is very simple to use, and helps you chart all the information you'll need!

Alternatively, you can try using InvestmentMoat's google spreadsheet. I used this before switching over to stocks.cafe :)

For me I have my own excel sheet which I will record when I get statements. Input like transacted units, transacted price/unit, average price, amount invested, fees, refund, dividends(if applicable)

You can try stocks.cafe. just need to type in purchase date, amount, stock name/code then everything...
