what you could do:
1) make a list of tickers you want to follow and put it in a file looking
for example like:
CSCO
MSFT
AMAT
APOL
2) then you put these tickers inside a watchlist. Go to Symbol | Watch list
| Import
and put the symbols in one of the lists that is free.
3) Now, if you need historical data for this list you can use this same file
(with all the symbols) and feed it to Amiquote and use either Yahoo, or MSN
to get the free historical quotes.
4) If you need to update this watchlist regularly you could just delete it
and import the updated version.
