Reason I ask is I'm trying to train myself to not look at the unrealized gain\loss number in my accounts every day in an attempt to change my way of thinking. I've got my holdings set up in SA and get notices from them on any breaking stories about my holdings (and companies I'm considering holding) and dividend investing in general, but I haven't yet broke the habit of watching the moves, up and down in my personal portfolios.



Doing something every day for 30 years is a hard habit to break. Besides that - I love this stuff as much as I do hot rods.
