One of the stratagies I follow with one of my portfolios is in small cap stocks. I evaluate stocks against a set of rules and buy the best three to five. I then set sell limits to capture a reasonable profit or limits my loss. So, 1/1, I buy A, B, C, & D. on 1/15 A turns out to be a loser, so I sell it and buy E. On 2/1 B & C make good profits and I sell them, and buy F & G. And so on. Chances are I will never buy A, B, or C again because either I made a mistake or I took my profits. What I want to do is look at my performance over the year, so I view the Portfolio Cost - Value graph and can see the history of my performance. Here is my problem. When I update prices, it get's all of my prices, A - G. The problem is that, while I only own 4 or 5 stocks, I am updating 12 prices. Can FM be set to only update prices where you actually own some stock? If I remove that stock from my port, I lose my historical data.
