StockMarketEye v2.8.2 Released

We are proud to announce the release of StockMarketEye v2.8.2 for Mac OS X, Windows and Linux.

This release includes a workaround for the recent problems with Yahoo! Finance’s data feed. If we detect a problem with the data returned from Yahoo! Finance, we now ignore the data and display the last known quote.

Other useful features in this release include a portfolio chart for the “Sum Total” view, IRR (Internal Rate of Return) and TWRR (Time-Weighted Rate of Return) columns as well as a number of smaller changes and bug fixes. It is a recommended update for all users.
