    ATA has just received some major upgrades that I feel everyone at Zecco should be made aware of.

    • Financial Calculators
    • Mortgage Rates
    • Charts
      • S&P 500
      • NYSE
      • Russell 2000
      • NASDAQ
      • Futures
        • Oil, Gold, etc
    • Jodange
      • www.jodange.com
    • Direct Access to Yahoo Finance charts, news, and research
    • Scott's Portfolio
      • You can now view a screenshot of the closing values of my portfolio.
      • Also, beneath the screenshot I have table that does what gainskeeper is suppose to do.  I added % weight of portfolio, and the P&L as a% of the total portfolio as well as other useful data.
    • Free Level 2 Quotes
    • Soon to come
      • Option pricing
      • What do you want???


    Not the mention the excellent analysis of the S&P 500 Trend

    Scott, thanks for the links.   I don't follow your blog but I think I will track it from now on.  I especially like the INITIAL COST, %WEIGHT, and %CHANGE columns that you added in the portfolio.  I hope Zecco includes those columns too or at least make them optional (users can choose which columns to display just like Yahoo does with their portfolio tracker).    Other columns i'd like to see in my portfolio would be the previous day's price, the price difference from previous day's price and the % of current price relative to previous day's price.  That would be too many columns already but it would be nice to have as a user option.   A real time portfolio that updates your prices, current equity and available cash would be awesome. too.

    Anyway, I long for Zecco to have a trading desk similar to E*Trade's.  Below shows a screen with multiple holdings of the same stock.   They have the following trading desk that shows the base portfolio screen.  I have purchased ORCL stock on more than one occasion, so there's a + next to the position. The rolled up values include all of my holdings, with average prices.

     

    Clicking the + expands to show the details.  Note that I can sell the entire holding, or an individual row. There is a sell link at each level. There is also a "buy" link if I want to add to the position. I wish something like this happening for us here.

    Having the flexibility or ability to choose which stocks you want to sell if you bought the same stock at different times (instead of FIFO)would be a great feature.

    Thank you for the kind words, and suggestions regarding the excel table.  I am currently trying to set up a profile that allows registered users to enter in their portfolio information, and the spreadsheet will get the data from a finance site and display appropriate %

    Good Luck,
    Scott
