It seems simple enough, except I’m not understanding how to enter in the price I paid for it and the net from the current price. Can anyone provide the setup for that? It looks like it is a comma delimited string in the add box, but I can’t find any explanation as to how it works.
Thanks

Hi Sean,
In order to use the gadget you have to separate your information by commas. For example I own 10,000 shares of Extorre (XG) which I bought for $90,000. It would be entered as
XG, Extorre, 10000, 9

I am most grateful to Jack: I removed ^DJI and now my Stock Board works well again. I did rely on it but threw it out when it went haywire about a year ago………………I keep it simple, though and don’t bother to enter price details since I want to keep my portfolio private.

The figures displayed in the Stock Board gadget make no sense. The gadget worked for a time and then reverted to meaningless numbers. The downs are still displayed in red and the ups in green, but the numbers are unrelated to the actual figures on the exchanges.

Have used and loved this gadget for years. Suddenly the quotes were wrong. Found the following. Problem solved.
Gadget / Yahoo Issue
An issue just started around 9/8/2010 or so where the Stock Board gadget appears to not be working properly. The issue appears as if stock data is being displayed for the wrong stocks and/or one of the stocks on your list is missing.
This only seems to happen when you have the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) on your list of stocks/symbols to track.
The gadget gets its data from Yahoo Finance and Yahoo seems to have just stopped sending data for the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI)…if you remove that symbol from your list of symbols the gadget should work fine. The ^DJI symbol still works on Yahoo’s website but not through their automated .CSV based data feed that the Stock Board gadget uses.
Yahoo has stated to me that “The limitation you are encountering is due to restrictions by the Dow Jones Index. Yahoo! is no longer able to provide Dow Jones Index data in this manner.”
It does appear that the symbol INDU also shows the stats for the Dow Jones Industrial Average and is still working with the Yahoo Finance data feed. Feel free to try that but no guarantee that Yahoo will keep that working.
Thanks for using my gadget and sorry for the inconvenience caused by Yahoo!
