Held for trade securities are stocks and bonds that are held with intention of selling in order to generate profits. Therefore there will be a selling price and all unrealized gains and losses are reported on the income statement. The Available for Sale securities are bonds and stocks that are sold with no intention of profit and all unrealized gains and losses are included in Other Comprehensive Income. Both need yearly fair value adjustments.
