: 1. As you can see from the screen shot, the 4.232 alert is showing at about 4.38 and the upper alert is not showing at all. (In "Value" view, the upper alert shows fine, but the lower one is still at the wrong value). This fund paid dividends before but the behaviour does not make sense. This only happened in this one example.

: 2. The default alerts are at +/-10%. I like to use 7% (and others depending on the nature of the fund). It would be nice if the user could set a percentage amount for the default (or better, be presented with a % choice when setting the alert).

Hello M Bourne,

1) You are graphing the "Price + Dist.", so the alert markers are adjusted up by the distributions paid since the beginning graph date. This is to keep the alert markers correct relative to the "Price + Dist." line being plotted here.

2) Thanks for the feedback, that would be a nice addition...

Nice graph by the way, I think you're the first person to ever use that feature of the message board... :)

Thanks,
Mark
