Real time share prices/portfolio tracking?

[trashbat]

For a long time I've been using Google Finance, which offers real time prices in most markets such as Italy. It's been a pretty useful tool to date.

However it's basically not maintained or supported any more as a product, and so for instance Fiat-Chrysler doesn't appear on there properly a week after going live. Additionally the Flash thing they use for charts freezes the browser every other page load.

Yahoo! is the most obvious alternative but most markets are 20 minutes behind.

Any other free recommendations?

Are you using it with Chrome?

Firefox mostly, but it's equally knackered in other browsers IIRC.

I was having similar problems but it runs better for me in Chrome.
Its not bad for free - but then I am very much a novice at this.

is it not: NYSE:FCAU ?

It is, but it's dual listed - NYSE and Milan.

If you search for it, you get NYSE:FCAU and BIT:F, but the latter is wrong, and should be BIT:FCA.

You might think this is being extraordinarily picky, but I hold it in Euros, and it means you don't get a sensible price for most of the day here.

BIT:F works for me - currently 6.94 - which agrees with Reuters

As does the code .. Reuters code is F.MI

So BIT.F seems logical enough ???

Look at the dates on its data.

See e.g. http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=fca.mi

However, it's a fair point that almost everyone else is wrong, so maybe just a case of wait & see.

I noticed that - I deleted the post but you were too quick

I like google portfolio but things like this are annoying. There are several UK unit trusts which I'd like to track which just display0.00 which is annoying.


You sound experienced - if you only need the data at your PC then you could put prices straight into excel?
