value change

[genet]

Still learning the program
How do I get the value change to show in [ price/shares/value/basis//value change]
somehow there is only one value and that is wrong
How to get rid of wrong value

Hi genet,

What window are you looking at? Are you talking about the "Value Change" or "Change" columns in the Portfolio Editor? Or, are you looking in the legend of a Graph window? Please try to clarify what you're looking at, so I can help better.

I open the program
click on open portfolio
in the open portfolio the screen shows
name-symbol-price-shares-value-basis-VALUE CHANGE
Should value change show the difference in value between basis and value ?
the value change column shows all zeros

Hi genet,

No, the "Value Change" is defined as:

"change in market value of investment or sub-portfolio from yesterday to today"

So, if you don't have a market price for today, the value change will be zero. If you retrieve current prices for today, you should then see a value change from yesterday.
