To get a good response, I suggest you give a bit of additional info. In 
particular, I suggest that you add

- what you are trying to do
- what you expect your program to run and do
- the output of your program when it runs (or the error if an error is 
  produced)

This advice applies not only to this post, but any future questions you 
might give to any programming-help environment.

With your post --- with proper indentation, I expect that your program 
would not run because `profit` and `loss` are not defined.

Good luck!
