I was looking at my stock and was pleasantly surprised to see it went up. My question is this. Our stock and money market account show a lower amount than my gains and losses account which is higher. I plan to call ING and ask about it but thought I'd post here as well.

Any ideas? Does the gains and losses amount show what it would sell at on the market? Or is the amount in my portfolio review (total account value) what it would potentially sell at market? We have no plans to sell because we are long term investors. We're just curious why such a discrepancy shows up.
