Android App to track a share portfolio?
« on: October 02, 2013, 04:29:23 pm »
I've been using the Sharenet android app to monitor my private share portfolio for a couple of days now and it works quite well, as you can set up a Watchlist with various shares, that then gives you the Price and movement on a 15 minute delayed basis.

Are there other Android apps available that can do this and more importantly, where you can input the number of shares you own to give you a balance and daily movement of your total portfolio?

not to hijack my own thread, but I used to be with Sasfin, but that was long ago - there was only phone trading and their costs were quite high

Yes, agree. But it is like a buffer ring, years ago I wanted to buy something. I phoned my broker, she said NO, and I said yes, I am the boss. She said NO, read this first......She saved me more than my cost over the years. Was JCI Gold ... :wall:

I use "Bread's - rambling of a 1 share portfolio" from the other site  :wtf:. I thus only have 1 share per portfolio. Currently OCE, thus trading cost not lot.
