Stock Trading Transactions Model - How to with OneNote ?

[cagosg]

I Want to keep track of my daily stock market trading. I buy and sell stocks
on a daily basis.
Is there a viable model out there. ?
I was thinking of creating a folder per transaction.
But I can see that I will have hundreds of folders.
It does not sound too efficient way of doing it.
Thanks
Carlos

Aloha cagosg,

OneNote is probably a fairly poor choice of application for that use, unless
I'm misunderstanding your goal. I'd use Access or maybe Excel for tracking
transactions.

What are you trying to accomplish?

Depends what level of record keeping you want to maintain, but I would not
suggest using OneNote for this.

I would look for something more structured that's designed for some number
crunching and manipulation.

Access or Excel might be a good start or, my preference, specific software
tailored to the stock market.
