View Portfolio

The View Portfolio page shows you all of the stocks in a single portfolio as well as news in the last 2 weeks for each of your portfolio stocks.

The number of stocks that you can have is determined by your subscription level. You can have up to 10 different portfolios which allows you to group them at your convenience.

  • Starter subscribers can have 10 stocks *total*.
  • Intermediate subscribers can have 40 stocks *total*.
  • Trader subscribers can have 100 stocks *total*.
  • DayTrader subscribers can have 300 stocks *total*.
  • Maximum subscribers can have 600 stocks *total*.

By default, all Stockwatch bulletins for your portfolio stocks are sent to you by email when they are released. There is no extra charge for this. Regardless of your subscription level you may get an unlimited number of quotes for any stocks.
