Hello,

I need help! After an update on 3.6.8 the Stock Trader cronjob fills the database table with 0 an no depot appears in the "top depot" listing.
But everyone can furthermore manage his own depot, it's just that the toplist isn't showing.
Has anybody else this problem?

Doesn't seem that much is happening over there either. Anyone seen any chart-addon to this mod?

Small hack that lists the symbols in your portfolio as a link to Yahoo's new beta chart.

OPEN VBTRADE.PHP
FIND (LINE 147):
			$stocktable .= "<tr class='alt$alt'><td title='$shareinfo[name]'>$info[symbol]</td><td align=center>". ( number_format($info[shares]) ) ."</td><td align=right>$lastprice</td><td align=right>$change</td><td align=right>$purchase_price</td><td align=center>$timetxt</td><td align=right>". number_format($costbasis,2) ."</td><td align=right>". number_format($mktval,2) ."</td><td align=right>$gaintxt</td><td align=right>$gainpertxt</td>$qtyfield</tr>\n";


REPLACE WITH:
			$stocktable .= "<tr class='alt$alt'><td title='$shareinfo[name]'><A href=http://finance.yahoo.com/charts#chart1:symbol=$info[symbol];range=5d;indicator=volume;charttype=line;crosshair=on;logscale=on;source=undefined target=_new>$info[symbol]</A></td><td align=center>". ( number_format($info[shares]) ) ."</td><td align=right>$lastprice</td><td align=right>$change</td><td align=right>$purchase_price</td><td align=center>$timetxt</td><td align=right>". number_format($costbasis,2) ."</td><td align=right>". number_format($mktval,2) ."</td><td align=right>$gaintxt</td><td align=right>$gainpertxt</td>$qtyfield</tr>\n";
