March & April 2018 Income

Added multiple currency support to dividend portfolio spreadsheet
While not the most exciting of titles, I did just release version 5.1 of the dividend portfolio spreadsheet. Since the loss of the Yahoo Finance API, I had to switch to a combination of IEX and Alpha Vantage to look up stocks. While I’m still trying to figure out all...
