Hi Larry, You change the Cash Reserve at the time you start the history. If you already have a history established, then it's a matter of using the TRADE window and either ADD or REDUCE the CASH depending upon the adjustment to be made. Secreted away from easy view is the method of bringing up Portfolio Control and making an adjustment. SHIFT+F4 will bring up the window. There's info in the HELP section on portfolio control changes along with several other topics. F1 brings up HELP. Best regards, Tom

Hi Larry, Here is some more to add to Tom's reply. How do I change in Newport the cash reserve percentage from the default to your IW number? I use multipliers to arrive at the proper cash reserve. 2X = 50%, 1.818X = 45%, 1.667X = 40%, 1.538X = 35% etc. How do I do Vealies in Newport? Vealie 1. Pull up the equity. 2. Hit "Shift" F4. This brings up "Portfolio Control Adjustment". 3. Add 1/2 of the recommended sale value to the existing PC #. 4. Calculate new hold range. 5. If you are in agreement, hit Okay. Here is a post from Tom to back up what I'm saying. Message 7490489 [snip] "Modern" vealies add only 1/2 the Market Sell Order value to PC. Keith
