Hey Doug,

I tried your method, and got a modicum of success but only on pulling the portfolio statistics as a whole, not on a per position basis. I'm having the same issue that Dinesh in the are that none of the costBasis/daysGain/marketValue data is being returned. I've attempted adding data manually through the web interface with the necessary transaction data that you had mentioned, along with trying to insert using the following XML:

string xmlData = @"<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""utf-8""?>"                                                                 + @"<entry
xmlns=""http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom"" xmlns:gf=""http://schemas.google.com/finance/2007"" xmlns:gd=""http:// schemas.google.com/g/2005"">"                                                                 +
"<gf:transactionData date='" + DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy- MM-dd") + "T00:00:00.000' shares='1.0' type='Buy'>"                                                                 +
"<gf:commission><gd:money amount='100.0' currencyCode='USD'/>"

                                                                +
"</gf:commission>"                                                                 + "<gf:price>"                                                                 + "<gd:money
amount='100.0' currencyCode='USD'/>"                                                                 +
"</gf:price></gf:transactionData></entry>";

and the following URI: "http://finance.google.com/finance/feeds/ exam...@gmail.com/portfolios/70/positions?returns=true"

I have two transactions in my portfolio

Name            Symbol  Last price    Change                   Shares Cost basis      Mkt value       Gain    Gain %  Day's gain      Overall Return Google Inc.     GOOG    369.14       -17.77 (-4.59%)    1.00      123.00 369.14  246.14  200.11%         (17.77)         200.11% Apple Inc.      AAPL    98.14        +1.07 (1.10%)            1.00              
0.00                 98.14   98.14   0.00%   1.07

As you can tell all the data that I need is available within the web interface. However, the two entries that are returned are like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <entry xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">   <gd:feedLink href="http://finance.google.com/finance/feeds/ exam...@gmail.com/portfolios/70/positions/NASDAQ:GOOG/transactions" xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" />   <gf:positionData gainPercentage="0.0" return1w="0.0" return1y="0.0" return3m="0.0" return3y="0.0" return4w="0.0" return5y="0.0" returnOverall="0.0" returnYTD="0.0" shares="1.0" xmlns:gf="http:// schemas.google.com/finance/2007" />   <gf:symbol exchange="NASDAQ" fullName="Google Inc." symbol="GOOG" xmlns:gf="http://schemas.google.com/finance/2007" />   <title type="text">Google Inc.</title>   <id>http://finance.google.com/finance/feeds/Champ...@gmail.com/ portfolios/70/positions/NASDAQ:GOOG</id>   <link href="http://finance.google.com/finance/feeds/champatcu %40gmail.com/portfolios/70/positions/NASDAQ%3AGOOG" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" />   <category term="http://schemas.google.com/finance/2007#position" scheme="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind" />   <content type="text" />   <updated>2008-10-06T15:11:49-06:00</updated> </entry>

and

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <entry xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">   <gd:feedLink href="http://finance.google.com/finance/feeds/ exam...@gmail.com/portfolios/70/positions/NASDAQ:AAPL/transactions" xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005" />   <gf:positionData gainPercentage="0.0" return1w="0.0" return1y="0.0" return3m="0.0" return3y="0.0" return4w="0.0" return5y="0.0" returnOverall="0.0" returnYTD="0.0" shares="1.0" xmlns:gf="http:// schemas.google.com/finance/2007" />   <gf:symbol exchange="NASDAQ" fullName="Apple Inc." symbol="AAPL" xmlns:gf="http://schemas.google.com/finance/2007" />   <title type="text">Apple Inc.</title>   <id>http://finance.google.com/finance/feeds/Champ...@gmail.com/ portfolios/70/positions/NASDAQ:AAPL</id>   <link href="http://finance.google.com/finance/feeds/champatcu %40gmail.com/portfolios/70/positions/NASDAQ%3AAAPL" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" />   <category term="http://schemas.google.com/finance/2007#position" scheme="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind" />   <content type="text" />   <updated>2008-10-06T15:13:43-06:00</updated> </entry>

Both of which are still as described before regardless of the additional transaction data.

The only way I can get anything close to what you have show is changing the URI to this: query.Uri = new Uri("http://finance.google.com/finance/feeds/ exam...@gmail.com/portfolios/70?returns=true");

which returns the portfolio data as a single entry as follows

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <entry xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xmlns:gf="http:// schemas.google.com/finance/2007" xmlns:gd="http://schemas.google.com/g/ 2005">   <gd:feedLink href="http://finance.google.com/finance/feeds/ exam...@gmail.com/portfolios/70/positions" />   <gf:portfolioData currencyCode="USD" gainPercentage="2.799024504" return1w="2.799024504" return1y="2.799024504" return3m="2.799024504" return3y="2.799024504" return4w="2.799024504" return5y="2.799024504" returnOverall="2.799024504" returnYTD="2.799024504">     <gf:costBasis>       <gd:money amount="123.0" currencyCode="USD" />     </gf:costBasis>     <gf:daysGain>       <gd:money amount="-16.699989" currencyCode="USD" />     </gf:daysGain>     <gf:gain>       <gd:money amount="344.280014" currencyCode="USD" />     </gf:gain>     <gf:marketValue>       <gd:money amount="467.280014" currencyCode="USD" />     </gf:marketValue>   </gf:portfolioData>   <title type="text">NinjaTrader_0</title>   <id>http://finance.google.com/finance/feeds/Champ...@gmail.com/ portfolios/70</id>   <link href="http://finance.google.com/finance/feeds/champatcu %40gmail.com/portfolios/70" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" />   <link href="http://finance.google.com/finance/feeds/champatcu %40gmail.com/portfolios/70" rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" />   <category term="http://schemas.google.com/finance/2007#portfolio" scheme="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind" />   <content type="text" />   <updated>2008-10-06T15:23:21-06:00</updated> </entry>

close but no cigar. Any other thoughts? Dinesh, are you still running into the same issue?
