Foreign shares price per unit

kemetivier

After importing my investment account the price per share does not match the price per unit on my month end statement. Does anyone have any best practices for this, or know who Quicken uses for their pricing information? I cannot reconcile the import with my November statement after updating Sunday, 12/1.

Thank you.

Another possible cause of the price mismatch is that Quicken does not have the correct closing price for the statement date, usually the last trading day of the month.

From your investing account's Account Overview (Holdings) view, click on the name of the security to display the Security Details then Update and Edit Price history to see the dates and prices that are on file. If Quicken does not have an end of month price, it will use the most recent previous price on file. For recent months Quicken can download historical daily prices but unfortunately after 30(?) days it switches to weekly prices which may not correspond to the end of the month. Further back it switches to monthly which is generally more useful.

What's that foreign stock, what's the symbol and what's its exchange/

Also, what Q product are you running? And what's the BUILD of Q? Do HELP, About Quicken for this info.

Quicken 2017 for Windows, version R19.7, Build 26.1.19.7.

Any foreign stock in the portfolio (ADDYY, AMKBY, etc.), shows a different price. Trying to reconcile balances from a month end statement the Price Per Unit does not match what is showing on the statement for these holdings.

Does Quicken use a different vendor for pricing information? What are the best practices for reconciliation with my month end statement?

Thank you.

ADDYY (Addias) may be a German company, but that stock symbol is listed OTC in the US ... thus it is NOT a foreign stock.

Same for AMKBY (Maersk), a Danish company.

SO, the question is: How do you have those securities set-up? And what's the currency of the account that they're held in?

You can take a snapshot of the set-ups and insert it here via the "paper with a folded corner" icon above.
