Tracking Gold and Silver (or any other commodity investment) in Quicken 2010?
You don't need to use a real stock like GLD.  You can just create a "stock" called something like "1 oz Gold" and buy and sell them as if they were shares.  It won't auto-update the price like GLD, but that's not a big deal to update manually once a month or so. I prefer to have accurate data that is correct at a particular point in time to having data that is 2-3% off, or that requires entering the ounces as 10x reality.  YMMV. This is very similar to how you track US Savings Bonds in Quicken (and might be described in the help under that topic.)
