I own and follow several stocks in my investment portfolio. I pick a reference price for each stock. To effectively track the movement of a stock, I need to visualize its 52-week prices based on the reference price that I determined. In this post, I explain how to do so with the SPARKLINE column chart in Google Sheets.

Anyone using Google Sheets to manage stock portfolio investment must know how to use the GOOGLEFINANCE function to fetch historical prices of stocks. As I have used it extensively to manage my stock portfolio investment in Google Sheets , I have learned several best practices for using the GOOGLEFINANCE function that I would like to share in this post.

I have explained the idea of using Google Sheets functions to calculate internal rate of return (IRR) and net present value (NPV) for a stock portfolio . The process consists mainly of three steps: Identify cash flows from transactions managed in a Google Sheets spreadsheet Choose a discount rate based on personal preferences Apply XIRR and XNPV functions of Google Sheets In this post, I demonstrate step-by-step how to apply this process to calculate internal rate of return (IRR) and net present value (NPV) for a stock portfolio at 3 levels.

In Google Sheets, rows are indexed numerically, starting from 1, but columns are indexed alphabetically, starting from A. Hence, it is pretty straightforward to work with rows and trickier to work with columns as we need to convert between column index and corresponding letters.

In this post, we will look at how to convert a column index into its corresponding letters by using the built-in functions of Google Sheets. What are letters of the column 999th in a spreadsheet?
