Default Re: Possible to show stock price next to its option?

That's actually a good solution, though one I won't implement because I need
to have the underlying stock price show in a column within a View that only
has options. But thanks for the suggestion.

You could name the option and the stock so they start out the same.
"Microsoft" and "Microsoft Jan 04 30 Put" and sort the portfolio by
name.

Default Possible to show stock price next to its option?

Money 2005 Premium does a reasonably good job of handling equity options
(biggest problem: doesn't exercise written puts properly). It would be very
handy to see in a portfolio or report the stock price of the underlying
security for an option.

For example, if I sell a $25 June 05 Microsoft Put, I can see lots of
information about that option in reports and the portfolio screen. However,
I don't see the choice of seeing the underlying stock price - Microsoft's
stock price - next to the option. This would be really handy to know how far
the option is in/at/out of the money.

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks,

Miles
