Ability to define external links for investments

[Djobydjoba]

Hi Mark,

For investments, i really would like the ability to define some external links to web pages / files on the hard disk.

I know about Web News but this feature is limited to the only investment page of the quote server. And if a server other than the default is defined for an investment, this simply doesn't work because the symbol is not valid.

The links I would like to define for an investment would target its page on Morningstar, its notice in a PDF file on the hard disk, its page on the investment manager site, etc., etc.

In my idea, this could work in the following manner : in the properties of the investment, up to five links and their name could be defined. Five links would be sufficient for most needs I suppose. To launch a link, we could then right click the investment in the Portfolio Editor, enter an "External Links" menu entry where the defined links (in fact their name) would be displayed and could be launched.

This would be of great help for the management of investments and data centralization in Fund Manager.

Thanks,
Djoby

Hi Djoyby,

Makes sense, I can see this being useful. Thanks for the idea.

Hi Mark

To be complete about the usefulness of links : they could lead to the company web site, activity reports, technical analysis pages or forum, investment's page on the broker web interface (awesome, we could pass an order quickly from FM !!), mutual fund composition and rating...

Thanks.
