Question:
You new breakout web page is stunning. I like the design and the idea of multiple pages which gets rid of the clutter. With that said, I have two questions:
- With so many pages of stocks is there any way to "find" a specific stock, i.e., if I use the Find Command (Ctrl-F) on page 1 will it wander through all the pages to find it for me? As opposed to paging through all the pages manually.
- Hiding the comments section is a nice touch. However, I copy and paste these great comments into a stock tracking software (Checklist Investor) so that all the relevant informational pieces from various sources are in one place for a specific stock. Is there any way to copy these comments? I tried right clicking on the comments logo but that didn’t have any options that copied the info.
My Response:
I’m glad you like the new breakout tracker.. I am very pleased with the way it turned out. I hadn’t thought of what you are suggesting and glad that you did – i’m always interested in the ways that members use the service. The most exciting part of the new tracker is the multitude of ways analyze the data.. ie. performance of stocks w/ specific ranking, avg buy volume for industries as a whole, the % of the time these breakouts reach a 20% gain vs. the % of time they hit an 8% loss, etc. This is where the service is headed. The overall vision is to create analytics page with all kinds of this informative info… in order to hone in on the absolute best strategy for profiting from the market.
Regarding your specific suggestions I will discuss them with my programmer in the coming days. These should be fairly easy to implement. The notes are kept in a database and it should be fairly easy to pull them out into a .CSV Excel. What I could do is make the entire watchlist available for download as an Excel file so members can use the data in any they want to.
[update: these features have been implemented]
