StockMarketEye v2.3.5 Released

We are proud to announce the release of StockMarketEye v2.3.5 for Mac OS X, Windows and Linux.

The main new feature of this release is the Portfolio Totals view. To see the total of all your portfolios, select the “Portfolios” item in the folder’s list (first item in the list of Portfolios and Watchlists on the left hand side of the StockMarketEye window). You’ll see the total market value of all your Portfolios along with the percentage gain, day’s gain and many others. You can even configure the columns you see by right-clicking on the column headers and selecting “Configure Columns”. Alternatively you can open the column configuration window via the Preferences, “Columns” tab.

There are a number other important new features such as support for recording stock splits, capital gains and return of capital transactions. Below is a complete list of the additions and changes in this version of StockMarketEye.

Bugs Fixed
