Hmm, the original snapshot code was from Polarzbearz. Anyhow, here are the fixes. Since you probably already have data in your files, you should fix this yourself with the following instructions (it's easy, so don't worry).

Fixing Instructions: Part A
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

That should fix the error that you saw. Now if you click on the "Capture Snapshot Only" button again you might see another error. This should be another easy fix (see Part B)

Fixing Instructions: Part B
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

I've only tested on Excel 2011, you can try the same fixes on Excel 2016. Let me know if you encounter issues.

Updated files if you want to start fresh (I recommend you apply the fixes above rather than having to reenter all your data again):
[attachmentid=8491160]
[attachmentid=8491133]

I have Office for Mac 2016 and tried to load the script from your 2016 version. Somehow i got error "Compile error: Expected: Sub or Function. (Module2 5:16)"

i then loaded the 2011 version into my file it works with Office Mac 2016. I can update and capture snapshot flawlessly.

thanks @idyllrain for your help. Just want to mention here, just in case someone had same problem as mine.

2) just because you might be slightly risk averse, doesn't mean 60% bond fund is 'logical'. I have only 4 - 5 % in bond fund, seems like very high risk but not really. Because i have other non-invested asset, held in cash. So, you can still be 'balance' without buying so much bond funds. There are other ways to 'balance' it.

What i see in the term "investment risk" is, about the money being invested in whatever investment instrument that bear risk on our money.

From my POV, uninvested cash (saving money) kept in for example saving acc or under the pillow, shouldn't be considered as part of investment portfolio. Unless that money is actually your investment capital, pending your planned DCA or VCA. Or in CMF. I can't see how would we fairly evaluate our portfolio risk when we include our saving money or emergency fund into the proportion, since it will reflect our portfolio to be safer than it is.

Hi. I just got my fsm account approved last week. Ihave RM5k to invest in FSM. Can you all suggest the portfolio that are shariah compliant.

You can screen from Fund Selector at FSM main page, by choosing shariah compliant only funds.

For recommended shariah funds, you can check on the recommended portfolio allocation & funds by FSM, just beside fund selector section.

I don't think there would be significant dip for msian bonds. When there were huge outflows of money from MGS last year, not much effect on msia bonds. I hold RHB Islamic Bond since early 2016. The gain is slow, but steady. There were ups and downs but nothing so impactful. The sail has been good. Unless US Fed raise their interest so significantly, then we should be worry of further and bigger outflows, of which i think would trigger BNM to do something to contain it nevertheless.

That was when the huge outflows started. But i would take it as a once off. Were there any such big depreciation afterwards? Nope. I'm in for a long haul. One two nyamuk bite, give and take lah. three? Four? Suddenly everyday lengan got bintik2? Go buy ridsect lah. In this case, time to re evaluate and get out.

Guys, anyone having issue using polarbearz excelsheet with latest Excel 2016 version on Windows?

I updated my Excel for Mac 2016, and suddenly required to update the declare statement to make it compatible with x64 version, though it has been running OK before the update. But still can't get the macro running after i updated the declare statement. rclxub.gif

Anyone could help?

i think, normally for other window file when I want to want to run with Macro,...I have to save as macro enable file to enable that file to run it.

does mac needs to do that too?

may I suggest you download the mac file again,
just copy a few data,....test to see if I can work?

if it can work,....copy all the data to this new file...
if it cannot work,....
.......have to wait for the 'creator" to come in to assist.....unless some other is kind enough to assist.

I didn't modify my save file with any new coding. But trying to be safe and to double check, I opened the original version uploaded here. And same error popped out. I think this gotta to do with my very lack of knowledge in C language. Can't identify which is which in the code. sweat.gif

Last year, I passed an Excel file with macro to my friend and he could not run it in his Mac Air. Later learnt that macro part was not included in the Excel Win to Excel Mac package.

Any Mac user can confirm this?

Thanks.

P/S That is one of the reasons why I have not migrated to Mac as I have a lot work in Excel macro.
*
If you check on first page, our sifu did mention this:
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

You can use macro on OSX but macro on OSX relies on different applications as to macro on Windows. So need to tweek the coding to make your macro Excel work on OSX.
TL;DR: macro running on Windows won't directly be able to run on OSX.

I think I've gotten around the issue with my macro Excel, after 2 nights of tweaking, trial and error rclxub.gif mega_shok.gif i'll update my tweaked code here later on for reference.

EDIT:

After latest update of MO 2016 for Mac, the macro Excel uploaded by ]@polarbearz] and idyllrain somehow can't work, with this error popping out:
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

I updated the declare statement with "PtrSafe" attribute, and updated LONG arguments for pointers with LONGPTR. My coding as below. Reference for declare statement update is HERE and for "long" arguments is HERE
The tweaked code is here:
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

TBH, i'm not sure if i have amended all necessary LONG arguments but it works and i'll let it be until next error sweat.gif

Hi screwedpeep, I uploaded two files in this post: https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=83747364

The 2016 file is for 64bit, while the 2011 file is 32bit. My fault for naming them 2011/2016 instead of 32bit/64bit.

AIYH Would you please update the first post with these files instead?

Noted and Thanks! I compared side by side and it looks like i did the right thing with my excel yesterday. laugh.gif no more issue. notworthy.gif thumbsup.gif

I have similar thoughts too. Nothing against the great Excel file did by our fellow LYN members, but despite all the instructions here, I still fail to utilize it appropriately. If anyone found any alternatives (for Excel-newbies like me), kindly enlighten me.

If you use polarbearz version, it is very straightforward. The instructions are clear and all are automated so it's a fully baked excel sheet, if i could say that. I only have issue when i was migrating from Windows to OSX, and with idyllrain help, it works. The sheets provided need no further tweaking, unless you're like me, wanting to go a mile further to add few extra things. Just remember to have separate sheets to experiment with. You should be OK. It could serve you well to be a study material and learn bit by bit. Take your time and learn how each macro/formula works. nod.gif icon_rolleyes.gif

Hi all, want to ask some advice. I'm using Polarbearz spreadsheet and keying in all my FSM transaction as of date. No issues with buying and selling transaction. but when comes to dividend from the Fund, the number of units does not tally with the amount.

For eg, 18 Apr 2017, CIMB fund gave a div of RM 131.62 @ 0.3393 NAV price. My transaction history shows 387.91 units added. I keyed in the transaction type as Dividend, Transaction Amt = RM 131.62, NAV = 0.3393 but the final unit comes out as 131.62 units.

Should i use the Transaction manual adj to change the units qty?
*
For dividend, you fill in units gained instead of total amount of the dividend received. It's not same as buy/sell where you put in amount.

EDIT: Tips for you. When you hover your mouse over the box of transaction type, you'll see a description on how to fill in the box.

For instance, you might have thought you are an aggressive investor who can cope with a high level of risk. However, in practice, if you find that you always panic too soon every time the market dips, and get overly euphoric and pump in more money whenever markets are on a roll, then high-risk investments may not so suitable for you because they are likely to cause you to lose money.

+1. I did, during those early days. Especially when i was lack of awareness what drove the fund prices, how it correlates to the markets, and half portion of my capital were put in just before the market went for a dive sweat.gif

I'm glad i didn't lump sum. Did VCA along the way. So yeah, regardless of the starting age, it's all about one's risk appetite and also planning. One will tend to push panic button too early during the early stage but i guess that's normal.

New Malaysian fund onboard by eastspring.

KUALA LUMPUR: Eastspring Investments Bhd has introduced its Islamic small capital (small-cap) fund, which will concentrate on syariah-compliant domestic stocks with potential returns in the medium to long term.

Eastspring chief executive officer Raymond Tang Chee Kin said that to date syariah funds under management in the local market recorded an 8% growth to RM96.7 billion. In comparison, the returns of FTSE Bursa Malaysia small-cap syariah index was 73.83% while that of FTSE Bursa Malaysia KLCI was 39.56%. 
"Even though the returns of syariah index is slightly lower than the conventional stocks returns at 82.16%, we can see the gains from syariah counters improving," he told reporters after launching the Islamic Small-Cap Fund in Kuala Lumpur on Thursday.

Tang said a minimum 70% of the net asset value (NAV) would go to syariah-compliant equities and equity-related securities and a minimum 1% of asset allocation would be channeled to Islamic deposits or Islamic liquid assets. 

"The small-cap segment is under-researched and under-servingly traded beyond its intrinsic value, so Eastspring will use this opportunity to unearth these small-cap companies and exploit the pricing inefficiencies," he added.

The initial issue price for the fund is 50 sen per unit for 21 days of the initial offer period beginning Thursday.

The minimum initial investment is RM1,000 and the minimum additional investment is RM100. As at March this year, the funds managed by the company stood at RM40 billion. - Bernama

Another option for shariah small cap. But it will take time before it appears on FSM though. Interesting to see how it goes head to head against PB Islamic smallcap which was recently launched too.

EDIT: just checked on FSM. It's already available.

I asked him if he can confirm no shariah compliant managed portfolio, and if there is any plan in the nearest time to be introduced. And if the sales charge of each fund bought in our portfolio is already included in that portfolio fee or we still have to pay like normal fund purchase. I hope someone got the opportunity to ask about the fee.

Yes don't blindly follow anyone. Find what you are comfortable with and stick to it.

In other news, Eastspring Islamic Small Cap is out, might be a decent sub for the now-closed Eastspring Small Cap?
*
I did not check who's the fund manager but looking at other Eastspring shariah funds, I'm a bit skeptical on how this small cap funds would perform.

On another note, this fund might be able to capitalize on gomen's initiative of injecting 3bilion of funds pooled from GLCs for small/mid cap stocks.
