About This Template

This template was designed to provide a simplified way to track an investment account.

of that investment.

Read the comments in the table header cells for information about each column.
The columns under "Other Information" are just examples of how you might expand this
template if you wanted to track other information. They are not used elsewhere in the
spreadsheet.

If tracking multiple accounts, you may also want to use one copy of the Account tab for

Tips

Using Freeze Panes

You can use the Freeze Panes option in the View tab to make it easier to scroll down to
add new data into the table while still viewing the chart and table headings.
Removing the Annoying Green Triangles
Some of the cells may have green triangles, which are supposedly meant to help you
identify possible errors. Most of the time they are just annoying.
You can customize the error checking options in Excel to avoid showing green triangles
for conditions such as "Formula Omits Adjacent Cells" by going to File > Options >
Formulas and unchecking the Error Checking Rules that you want to ignore.
