Iain,
You get your username and password when you sign up as a paying subscriber. You can then use this to get data downloads and updates whcih you cannot get on the intial 30 day trial, which has a non updating set of data.

As a Premier subscriber, I can't see any way of upgrading to this service, which I think I should be able to do for an extra fiver a month. Is that right, and if so, how do I upgrade?

Simply Chart is a seperate product from MoneyAM.
markymar - To update the data, you will need to take out a Simply Chart subscription.
Piptrader - It is not possible to upgrade from a MoneyAM subscription to a Simply Chart subscription.
For more information, please go to
www.simplychart.com
Thanks, James.

Thanks James. So I cancel by existing MoneyAM sub, and sign up with Simply Chart. But the Simply Chart sign-up info says "During your sign up process you will be asked to choose a username." and then "To access MoneyAM simply use the same username..."
When you sign up with Simply Chart is your username checked against MoneyAM's database, and no duplicates allowed? If not, chaos is going to reign, especially when I sign in as Ruth:-) But if duplicates are not allowed, does that mean I lose my existing username, or is there provision to keep it as an existing MoneyAM subscriber?

Does it have the data minig like sharescope please?
I am unable to subscribe due to only having access on work pc's this week, so am unable to have a look.
My criticism of Sharesope is that you have to download the data every day, presumably this doesn't involve that?
Piptrader
- 27 Mar 2006 22:52
- 23 of 124
Andy - according to the FAQs, it works in exactly the same way as Sharescope, in that you have to click 'Update Data' to retrieve outstanding data. But, as with Sharescope, you don't have to update daily - you can do it when you want.
supermum
- 27 Mar 2006 23:07

you have to update at the end of every day for uptodate info!
and it does not data-mine like Sharescope but it does allow you access to upto date prices and news via the MAM site.. which SS doesn't let you do

piptrader, supermum,
thanks for your replies.
What happens if you can't update the data some days, will it all load at once when you next access the system?
So this costs 10 per month, and you save the Moneyam 5 per month monthly fee?
supermum
- 27 Mar 2006 23:19

yes... will get it up to date ....

Andy,
In answer to one of your questions, if you can't update the data for some time, when you next open the product you just need to click on update data and it will pull in all the missing data.
Piptrader,
The if you sign up for Simply Chart, you will not be able to use a username that is already used on MoneyAM - therefore you would not be able to use Piptrader. The login you subsequently chose for Simply Chart will be the one that allows you premier access on MoneyAM

Unfortunately not, Simply Chart is a seperate subscription. The 10 per month/110 per year is the cost of the package, the premier access is a free add on, and can not be offset against any other level of Sub.

Without looking at your machine I can't really say - I have a 2mb connection at home, and it downloaded much quicker than that for me a few days ago.
There really could be a number of factors between you and us and with what you have open on your machine which is causing this. I will however let James know just incase there are any issues.

I've tracked the problem down - it just goes wrong with one Display Scheme: PinkBlue. With that scheme, you either get line or OHLC bars, regardless of which bar or candlestick icon selected.
All the other Display Schemes work correctly.

Any luck on MIKE?
DocProc
- 29 Mar 2006 09:29
- 62 of 124
Hmmm?
I tried a little experiment withe four postings done with two using an 'ExecLine' Log In and two logged in using 'DocProc' Log In, all four windows open on my machine at the same time.
If you have two username identities on here, it would seem you have to 'Log In' (A) and 'Log Out' (A) and then 'Log In' (B) once again to make a posting with a change of your username identity.
MoneyAM does link the two usernames together and will only allow one username to be used at a time. It doesn't semm as though it is posssible to have a 'conversation' with yourself unless you log in and out and in and out, etc, etc.
I do think this is a bit 'wierd' and I don't think it is entirely satisfactory. Albeit, it will make the MoneyAM subscriber figures look great. Ah well.
Isaacs
- 29 Mar 2006 10:07
- 63 of 124
Why would you want to be logged in under two users names and have a conversation with yourself anyway? Thought that was reserved was the loonies over on ADVFN.
DocProc
- 29 Mar 2006 12:46
- 64 of 124
Well, there are going to be users over here with two usernames now for sure.
Probably there always were. Probably, because users post under a nickname, rather than with a real name, it isn't preventable.
Isaacs, I don't and wouldn't want to do as you suggest and post as a loonie. Nevertheless, I do have strong curiosity and merely wanted to test things out for myself.
I do think you have to watch out for 'what and how' people post on a financial site bulletin board and do your own research into things. There are loonies on the one hand and there are crafty people with strong hidden agendas on the other.
Oh, and please 'lighten up' a bit. Your post reads a little bit like a personal attack. I don't think my stuff deserves it. It was meant to be somewhat educational as well as experimental. :-)

Sorry wasn't meant to be a personal attack and reading it again not sure it sounds like one so perhaps it is you that needs to lighten up ;-)
Anyway just couldn't see why you were so concerned about not being able to be logged in with both names. If there must be two user names (which presumably is the only way to make things work) then surely that is preferable.

Robb Its a secret formulae, not; It was a test to see if we could replicate the Bollinger Optimised Synergy System using a Price/Close indicator together with a combined Price/Volume indicator.
here is the formulae
TYP:=(HIGH+LOW+CLOSE)/3;
LL:=LLV(LOW,N);
HH:=HHV(HIGH,N);
WR:TYP+(TYP-LL);
MR:TYP+(HH-LL);
SR:2*HH-LL;
WS:TYP-(HH-TYP);
MS:TYP-(HH-LL);
SS:2*LL-HH

Isaacs & DocProc, having read both of your posts I don't think anyone had any intended malice in mind, and I read both peoples posts as interesting comments on the system that's in place.
I do think it's silly that you can't keep the same username if you could verify your existing MAM username in some way before getting your Simply Chart username.
I have an annual Sharescope sub so won't be jumping just yet. Just one question from me. I run two machines, laptop at work then desktop at home. Sharescope will now allow you to have one copy on each machine as long as one is just a backup of the other. Could I do this with Simply Chart?
supermum
- 30 Mar 2006 03:26
- 75 of 124
I have been beta testing SimplyChart for weeks now, and the quality of the price data was one of the things I monitored closely. and I think you will find that the information stream fom Comstock and LSE is pretty reliable.
Regarding the number of items on Sharescope, which I also have.... large does not always mean better. I am a keen warrant trader and much of their list is useless and out of date by as much as 4 years ... these should be weeded out! and a lot of the information is duplicated, especially on the indices.
However, this is the first release, so to speak, and if MAM waited til it was perfect it would never have been launched!
So constructive emails to Moneyam I'm sure would be appreciated, they already have my wish list of things that I would like to see added and improved!! So if there is anything in particular you would like to see in there, do let them know!
A real bonus with SimplyChart is that you only have to hit the button at the top to get the live price and the up-to-date news which is simply not available on Sharescope end of day. News is completely unimportant to me, but important to some, and Sharescope's news updates are erratic..... but the live price is very important to me...
SM
Haystack
- 30 Mar 2006 13:43

Yes. The live price is a major difference and benefit. It is enough to make me want to switch from Sharescope.
The only feature I would like sometime is the ability to export data from it to my PC to use in my own software or Excel.

Andy,
The Simply chart package is a seperate subscription, which if you sign up for would give you a different username and password - that would then give you free access on MoneyAM at Premier Level, which, if you decided to use instead of your active subscription, would mean that you would have limited trades, limited stockwatch, (i.e. they would time out after a short period of time), you would not be able to access streaming news, news watch, or news alert. You would also lose streaming charts., and would only have limited access to our company zone and research pages.
You would also not be able to use the static (HTML) stockwatch
The Premier Level is our first paid for sub - if you go to our services, and click on comparison grid you can see what premier would entitled you to.

Downloaded the free trial of SimplyChart and noticed this thread.
I want to subscribe but under my existing MoneyAM username. Reading through the thread is does seem it can be arranged but anyone know how?
Also is there a thread that discusses using the many facilities of SimplyCharts. There are loads of different types of indicators/scans but some are not immediately clear how to use.
IanT(MoneyAM)
- 24 May 2007 07:17
- 112 of 124
FreeFox,
Although it is technically possible for us to do this, there are a number of reasons why we do not.
Firstly this is a seperate subscription to MoneyAM and therefore needs to be seperately subscribed to.
I note from your subscription that you are a Shares subscriber, this means you already have the premier access that simply chart would afford you on your current account. If we were to change this to a simply chart account your access would be affected in that you would not be able to access the magazine online.
If you decide to sign up for simply chart, you will still be able to use your current username to access MoneyAM - the simply chart username you chose and password we would supply to you would be valid for simply chart, and you would only have to use it once, when you intially enter it into the software. It would then be stored in there forever, as its only purpose is to allow you to update the product - you would never have to enter it again and you could continue with your existing MoneyAM login to access the site.
finally, if we did manually apply the simply chart access to your existing shares account, not only would you lose some of the features you have at the moment, but shoudl you decide you wanted to take out a higher subscription with MoneyAM, you would not be able to do it as the account would be set to the seperate simply chart sub.
I hope this clarifies things,
Ian
