[GNC] Stock pricing

[John Morgan]

David 

 

Thank you for your response. I tried what you suggested but did not work.

 

This is the set up I have 

 

In the preferences under numbers, date and time I have set Forces prices to display as decimals to yes and the number of decimal points to 4

 

In the security editor I have set the fraction traded to 1/1000 ( I am not sure if this relates to the number of shares or share price

In the account I have set the type to stock and the security to the one I created 

I have also the set the small fraction to 1/1000. Again I am not sure if this relates to the number of shares or the price.

 

When I try to enter a new price under the tools menu – price data base and enter a price of 2.3675 it always rounds to 2.37.

 

I cannot find any option to change the number of decimal places.

 

I am on version 4.6 and before I update the version I could always enter as many decimals as required. I am using windows 10.

 

I have tried to download the latest version a number of times but for some reason the down load does not complete

John,

 

Check the fraction traded for the stock in the security editor - I'm not sure but I think it's related to that setting ?  Mine are set to 1 / 10000 so you might try increasing that if it is lower.

 

Cheers David H.

I have checked the preference options, have changed the number of decimal places to 4
I have checked the security set up
I have checked the stock set up

Cannot see any way to change the number of decimals

Can anyone help
