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:
  • 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.
