: Hi Mark!

: I am following my mutual funds with graphical analysis with mooving average etc...The problem is that for my actual investment the fund give $1 of dividend so the price went down of $1. The value is ok but for the graphs, it base on the price so it looks like a loss of value because the price is $1 down : so it mix up the graph look on wich I take my decisions. Is there a solution to that?

: I want to take this occasion to wish you Merry Chrismas and thank you for your valuable program and support: every time I asked a question, the response was fast and accurate.

Hi Yvan,

Yes, this is the reason we also offer the "Price + Distributions" graph.
That graph will plot the sum of the share price plus all distributions/share
since the starting graph date. This way you can see the true
performance graphically, including distributions.

Thanks also for the nice comments, I'm glad to hear you've received good support.

Thanks,
Mark
