With up to 50 portfolio’s tracking 50 stocks each, this portfolio system will be enough for any trader.

Options of interest include e-mailed status reports on your portfolio, sortable columns (i.e. by gain or loss), the ability to edit columns, Java or non-Java viewing changes, links to research as well as the "news" column which displays a highlighted newspaper when current news is available on the firm.

This portfolio only takes 2nd to Quicken because it lacks the wide variety of options found on the Quicken site. Where Quicken has dozens of options for columns, appearances etc.. SmartMoney is limited to only a dozen or so columns and limited options.

This is an excellent option for any trader and possibly even a better option than Quicken for a newer Internet surfer who might not be comfortable with the dazzling array of options presented by that portfolio system.
