Personal Stock Monitor Addresses Stock Site Shutdowns with Simplified Stock Portfolio Data Import

College Park, MD (PRWEB) April 22, 2010 -- Recent closures of popular stock market sites and applications have left many users with few options to move their years of portfolio data to other solutions. To address this need, DTLink Software has expanded and simplified the importing of stock market data into it's Personal Stock Monitor GOLD software, by developing a New Account Wizard which enables a user to create a new tracked portfolio directly from portfolio data exported from those sites and programs, in either Comma Separated Values (CSV) or Quicken Interchange Format (QIF) files.

"Investors place a high value on their data. Some have records going back many years. When a stock market site or applications they have relied on is shut down, they are often left with few easy options. To address this need, we wanted to make it as easy as possible for users to import and export their data to and from our product," said Yermo Lamers, President of DTLink Software. "Investors often use a combination of products, and making it easy to move data between them is becoming a key requirement."

The new data import support is available immediately, in the current release of Personal Stock Monitor Gold software.
