I have entered an equity option trade in moneycentral. When I sync Money
2004, it does not download this trade. It downloads equity trades. What can
be wrong?

TIA,

Ed

I do use period. The moneycentral shows the right option description
including the strike price and call or put.

What are you using as the symbol? MoneyCentral want the listed
option symbol to be preceded by a period. So .MSQGF would be the
symbol for a MSFT July $30 Call.

I just did a test buy of 1 contract of .MSQGF at $0.99 just now. It
downloaded a price of 0.90 and showed I lost $9 today on my
contract.

Try selling (short sell). It does not work. Buy works.
