How do you stop downloading prices for a security no longer being held (bulk)?

Cathleen Ames

I have Quicken Classic Premiere, R66.28, build 27.1.66.28.

Over the years my security list has gotten quite large, many of them no longer being held. I would like to stop downloading info on securities no longer being held. I do not want to go through each security to know if its' being held. The report where you select closed lots, also is not a help, since the report is broken down by account and the security could be open elsewhere. If this is not an option, please, please add it. I've seen a lot of posts about it, and people tell you click here or there, but they are so old, the options are no longer valid.

Go to Tools > Security list, click the Show hidden securities box, and un-check the Watch List box for each security you don't want to follow even if you don't hold any shares. Unfortunately you must do this one security at a time, but it is pretty fast.

Quicken will continue to download quotes for securities you still hold if their Download Quotes box is checked.
