What is pnl?

PnL stands for Profit and Loss. It is a financial statement that summarizes a company’s revenues, costs, and expenses during a specific period. Businesses use PnL to track performance, profitability, and growth. In trading, PnL shows gains or losses on investments. Positive PnL indicates profit, while negative PnL reflects losses during the time frame.
 
P&L stands for Profit and Loss.

It shows how much money you made (profit) or lost over some time — like a report card for your business or trading.

If it’s positive, you made money.
If it’s negative, you lost money.

That’s it!
 
In finance and trading, PnL, or Profit and Loss, is a key metric that indicates the financial outcome of a trade, investment, or business operation. It essentially shows whether a position has made a profit or loss.
