You can add to StockThis the symbols that are not in the application database.
Follow these steps:
Open StockThis, and press the Portfolio button.
In the Portfolio screen, press "Add manually" button.
There, you can introduce the data, the name can be anything, but the "Yahoo Finance symbol" must be the right one.
Now, how to get the right symbol from Yahoo:
Go to
http://finance.yahoo.com
There's a text entry "Get quotes", search there for your symbol, for example IEEM. It's not a valid yahoo symbol, but it will list all similar symbols. In this case, the search will be: A:IEEM.L, IEEM.L, IEEM.MI, IEEM.SW
Check out the one that you want, and add it to StockThis, like explained in the first instructions.
