YourPortfolio (Y$P) gives you a consolidated view of all your investment accounts that you hold across various financial institutions. This requires you to input your opening positions by account. Once complete, the only updates required are transactions (buy or sell).
The App enables you to accurately calculate average cost of each investment by account, multiple accounts or all accounts based on your selections. It also provides delayed or end of day historical prices for your common stocks, preferred stocks and mutual funds via third party providers. For other holdings (GIC’s, bonds, real estate, etc.) you have the option to manually enter the current fair market value which can be updated at any time.
To be clear, this app was created to accurately track average cost as opposed to providing real time quotes. This app does not perform transactions, nor will it make investment recommendations.
A note on Security and Privacy: this app does not access any of your financial accounts, or require you to input any of your account passwords. The app’s data is stored on your device with the option to back up the database to Dropbox. At all times, you have complete control over your data.
