| Re: track ^SPX and add investments to watch Actually, my 'Watch' account was not tagged as being one. Once I did that, went to investments, selected add, then 'Watch' account, an option appeared to add an index. After having done so I had to value the symbol, but it works. It also shows up in the list of indexes for comparison, but has no history.

In Money 2005 you can click the little Chart symbol next to a symbol in the Portfolio view. Then add one or more "Compare with" symbols. Click Chart-> DisplayOptions to select comparison charts to show Percent Difference. |

| Re: track ^SPX and add investments to watch Thanks for your reply. I added S&P and DJIA to a new 'Investments to watch' list. When I compare two investments (graph), Money plots the actual values, instead of a %change from start-end date. Is there any way to do this? |

| track ^SPX and add investments to watch Hi, Whenever I try to compare the performance of an investment (stock or fund) with a major index (S&P 500 or DJIA), I get an error saying "You have no price history downloaded for S&P 500. To update information, click update prices in the left pane." When I do that, the quotes for most of the things get updated, except for the indices, and the get the same error message again. When I tried to add an investment or index to 'Investments to watch' list, I realized that there is no such category as 'Investments to watch'. Am I missing something? |
