Ms_Mel is on a distinguished road
When I was working in an office, I couldn't have my CHARTS up on my screen to watch my trades, so I made myself a nice little Excel thing (which I put to the right side, so I could slide to it then come back to my normal work).

All you need to do is put something like this in a cell:

=MT4|bid!EURUSD

This will give you the current price in real time. Then you make a simple formula where you enter your entry price minus current price and you can instantly see how your trades are doing.

Make sure you've got an instance of MT4 running in the background (minimized) for this to work.

And if your boss happens to walk by and mention he's seeing "numbers changing on your Excel screen", simply smile and tell him he drank too much yesterday (and quickly slide back to your original work )
