An excellent tutorial makes setting up Personal Stock Monitor Gold almost fun. The polite installation offers to make backups of shared files and asks before it creates a desktop shortcut. The program holds your hand throughout the process of assembling a portfolio, setting stock alerts, and finding news and research. Yahoo is the default source for news and quotes, but you can choose from a list of international sources. Tabs in the main window let you examine your current holdings, active securities (current holdings plus a watchlist), transactions, news headlines on all watched stocks, and reports on current holdings. By right-clicking a stock symbol, you can update the price, view a variety of charts, set or modify alerts, and check recent SEC filings. You can show or hide a ticker bar with clickable headlines and stock symbols. Also, if you need to perform complicated analysis, you can drag stocks into your Excel spreadsheets. Personal Stock Monitor Gold would meet the needs of investors with various levels of technical and financial knowledge.
