New STOCK HISTORY feature
The new feature works very simply.
In any cell we write =STOCKHISTORY (or =STOCKHISTORY in the English version of EXCEL) and fill in several fields of the function.
The required fields are “Shares” and “Con-date”.
Stock - security ticker or name
Start_date - history start date
By default, "End_date" is equal to "Start_date". If you omit “Cond_date”, information is shown for only one date, which can be convenient for displaying historical data for several tickers at once.
STOCK HISTORY can show historical data on monthly, weekly and daily intervals. By default the data is daily. The parameter is responsible for this:
Interval : 0 – daily, 1 – weekly, 2 – monthly
The last option helps you select the headers in the displayed historical data table:
Headers : 0 – do not show headers, 1 – show headers, 2 – show ticker and headers.
The option to display tickers is convenient when displaying data for several securities at once.

The currency ticker is indicated by “/” or “:”.
In addition to regular “fiat” currencies, all popular cryptocurrencies are available. For example, to download Bitcoin price history, you must specify “BTC/USD”.
Currency quote
A currency quote is the price of one monetary unit expressed through another monetary unit (the national currency of another state). A complete quote includes a selling rate (often higher) and a buying rate (lower).
Currency quotes can be divided into:
- official - determined depending on the characteristics of the country’s currency regime and the unique characteristics of the currency system;
- interbank - set by the main managers of the foreign exchange market (market makers). The quotation is established by analyzing and comparing the needs on the world market for each specific currency;
- exchange - is formed by consistent analysis and comparison of demand for the purchase and sale of currency.
What stocks are profitable to buy now?

- PJSC Severstal - 17.15%;
- NLMK - 14.31%.

- PJSC Inter RAO. Growth potential - 28%;
- PJSC Rusal. Growth potential - 24%.

How to invest in stocks
To invest, you need an investment account. For the average person, this usually means finding an online broker and opening a trading account with them.
How to buy shares as an individual
The easiest do-it-yourself option is to open a brokerage account yourself and trade without a professional manager. After registration, account verification and depositing funds, the broker offers to download the proprietary trading platform and start trading.
Each broker provides detailed guidance on opening a brokerage account with them in the form of step-by-step instructions. Simply put, detailed instructions for dummies, plus an online chat at hand if any problems arise. So this can be considered one of the simplest steps.
How to choose stocks
Buying and selling securities is easy - the online broker has tried to ensure that technically the process itself is just a couple of clicks of the mouse. It is much more difficult to learn how to invest - to choose the right assets, to properly diversify the portfolio and to rebalance it in time.
Here's what I'm going by:
- How can this particular paper make me money. When I buy a company asset, I evaluate in what form it is more useful - as a dividend security or as part of a successful business that I can sell for a lot of money later.
- How will it perform in the long term? The stock market can be very volatile, but the good news for investors is that, historically speaking, it remains a rising stock. Therefore, you need to evaluate the stock with a view to the years ahead.
- How well do I understand the topic? The golden rule of the stock market masters - invest only in what you understand - remains valid to this day.
- Does the company have a competitive advantage? Competitive advantage is essentially an advantage over similar companies; the more sustainable it is, the more likely the company is to remain profitable in the long term.
- How effective is the company's management? Management is responsible for making strategic decisions that, over time, affect the value of the company. This is why it is so important to find a company with strong staff.
How to make money from rising prices
Investors have several strategies they can use to make money in the stock market.
One of the popular ones is buying growth assets, that is, companies that are ahead of the market, increasing their profits faster than other competitors in the industry.
Companies that can do this over a long period of time are more effective at attracting investors, since they not only provide good prerequisites for regular dividends, but also allow them to sell securities profitably in order to expand their portfolio.
Here are the things I look for when looking for growth stocks:
- general market macrotrends;
- market capitalization of the company;
- profitability;
- sales growth rate;
- projected and actual profit growth;
- market sector prospects.
Although in fact there is no “armor-piercing” formula that will allow you to pull only the clearest papers into your basket. There is always room for error.

What are commodity quotes
As mentioned above, for all goods on the market there are certain values. In this case, they are the price that allows you to conclude transactions in the conditions of the commodity market. However, not all goods are quoted, but only those that are in the exchange bulletin database. These include the necessary resources involved in production, metal, oil, forest, agricultural products, raw materials.
The price of the listed goods is determined by the commodity exchange. This happens according to the following scheme: information about supply and demand is collected by global information systems and compiled into a database. This allows you to create an unambiguous market price, which becomes a reference point for all market participants. The possibility of minor price changes remains possible. In this case, the exchange acts as a price regulator, which demonstrates guidelines for the costs of a specific resource.
As you can see, the concept of quotation is actually very multifaceted, deep and interesting, while at the same time allowing for a stable and high income. In the video you can see how to make money using quotes in one trading day:
Risks and ways to avoid them
Investing is a risky business.
In my opinion, the main dangers are:
- Economic risk. To put it simply, the economy could go bankrupt. For example, in 2008-09, many economies went bankrupt and defaulted. And shares of local companies have fallen significantly in price.
- Currency risk. If we own foreign investments and earn in foreign currencies, it can sometimes hurt if our currency strengthens too much against that one.
- Credit risk. The issuer may accumulate too much debt and go bankrupt. Quite a real scenario.
To reduce risks, we use the following:
- index funds instead of individual assets;
- diversified portfolios instead of mono-stocks;
- reinvesting dividends instead of withdrawing cash.
If the market moves, move your money into protected sectors or hedge with precious metals.
Exchange quotation commission
The task of the quotation commission is to monitor transactions carried out by members of the exchange and control them. It identifies real quotes and publishes them.
Data on the position of quotes on the exchange are displayed on the quotation sheet, to which all trading participants have access. At the same time, the trader himself can create his own sheet with the securities and exchange commodities that interest him.
This sheet displays the following items:
- current price (and its changes);
- volumes of transactions carried out;
- date and time of quotation;
- information about the issuer (the body that controls securities);
- initial and final price of the exchange rate;
- minimum and maximum price values during the trading day.
In addition, the quotation commission publishes a periodic exchange bulletin - a publicly available summary of exchange data.
Remember that a quote will only help you make money if it reflects real market indicators. That is why it is necessary to use proven and reliable trading platforms.

Price of foreign shares on Moscow Exchange
Foreign shares denominated in rubles are traded on the Moscow Exchange.
Unlike the original, they have a ticker supplemented with “-RM”. That is, for Apple, the ruble ticker will be AAPL-RM, for Facebook, instead of FB, we write FB-RM, and so on.
The formula for calling quotes is as follows:
=IMPORTxml("https://iss.moex.com/iss/engines/stock/markets/foreignshares/boards/FQBR/securities.xml?iss.meta=off&iss.only=marketdata&marketdata.columns=SECID,LAST", concatenate (“//row[@SECID='",B47,"']/@LAST"))
Differences from previous formulas are marked in red:
- As usual, we change the address of the cell with the ticker to suit ourselves.
- Ruble foreign shares have a trading identifier - FQBR
- Instead of shares we put foreignshares (foreign securities).

Why are Berkshire Hathaway shares so expensive?
In 1980, a share of Berkshire Hathaway stock was worth less than $300. Not so bad, right? But a decade later, the Berkshire was worth about $7,000. In 2000, its price rose to $50,000. And today, as you know, it costs more than $300,000! What's the solution?
The fact is that Berkshire shareholders are Buffett's partners. Buffett never split Berkshire Hathaway. He admitted that he was afraid of speculators who would try to make money on his shares, so he made them expensive.
