Well, looks like Quicken can't retrieve option prices, so that means I will need to manually update option prices in Quicken. That isn't really so bad, because I can still keep track of transactions, portfolio value, transaction feed into TurboTax. Quicken will treat an option symbol the same as a stock symbol, so I don't see a downside here. Now I don't do automatic transaction downloads from my brokerage account. I will be stepping into that later this Winter/Spring. Should I apologize for recommending Quicken to you?
