To date I cannot do so and they have my watchlist which they will not give to me....nor will they give me my portfolio information as I had entered it on my watchlist. They claim they don't have my watchlist (compiled with many hours of constant work. Ihave lost thousands of dollars in not being able to act in a timely way. They claim they are 'migrating' their website and all will be well eventually. In the process they managed to extract my mother's maiden name from me.

It feel like identity theft.merooney I have used Quicken 2006 to track my portfolio.
