Re: [Position Cost Averaging] PCA not running quotes



> Is anyone having problems downloading quotes using PCA program?
>
> I'm using Ver.3.0.7


Got this from Bill McKinley:


Hi,
The programmer is working on a fix right now. We had the same problem
a few days ago, then it was fine again. It might just be a temporary
glitch with the Yahoo data or we might need to issue an update.

Please ckeck the Help page in PCA for the update over the next few
days. Click the Help button in PCA to go to this page:

http://www.stocksystem.net/pca4win/help/default.htm

We always post the newest update towards the top of the screen in the
blue box. We will change the date and upload the new update as soon as
it is ready and it will restore the functionality.


For now you can go to the User Options, Quote and History Servers and
set them to "User Set" and "From File", and your PCA will work
manually, you just have to enter the current price.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Best Wishes and Good Investing,
Bill McKinley

I forgot to add that, if possible, it's a good idea to keep commissions to less than 1% of the trade value. With today's low commissions, that's not too hard...
