There is a really good tech team here, lets give them some ideas for enhancements or to cure any bugs we find.

Is there a better way of presenting directors dealings ie a simple table that shows the value of shares, number of directors dealing and whether they bought or sold.
To open up each share in turn and read through all the guff to get to the relevant bits is just a waste of time.

Regards Martin.

croc, my comments on the charting facilities:

1- allow for chart settings to be stored, usually in a cookie. and allow for more than one setting, i suggest at least 3 settings.

2- on candlesticks and large size and time span of 6 months the candlestick is shown pre-set to weekly one - the volume is shown as daily and appears spindly by comparison. i suggest that these preset values be for daily candlesticks up to one year. best allow for adjustment by user.

3- missing indicators: rsi, stochastics(fast and slow) and last but not least, bollinge bands. i wish to emphasise the importance of the latter.

4- ensure that all indicators and facilities work on intraday charts too.

Please change the background colour, or preferrably give each user the facility to change it to their own preferred colour.

The site is too wide, on the portfolio pages i need to scroll from left to right, surely this ain'y right?

Re niggles post,yeah I find that a bit of a pain too,also (and I did ask this on the "bugs" page,on Thursday,still no reply)how do you add "ISF" to the stockwatch thingy ?????????

Jon, right, more info on this logout problem:

1. It appears to be more likely to happen when one does not use the window for some time.

2. Interesting sequence of events today. Two windows open, one to Traders' Room and one to Investors' Room. Refreshed a thread in TR, login screen came up. Login screen however said "currently logged in as Kayak". Didn't do anything, moved to IR window which was on thread list and refreshed that. Top of thread list then said "you are not currently logged in". Refreshed again a couple of times, same result. Then clicked on a thread link in IR, login screen came up, again saying "currently logged in as Kayak". Now both windows are on login screen. Refreshed both, still on login screen and still saying logged in. Pressed "Back" on IR screen and refreshed, now said "currently logged in as Kayak" on thread list, and works as normal. Same in TR. Never actually logged in again.

Kayak,

Thank you for that, should hopefully give us a lot more to go on!

Kayak

You call that interesting????

Gausie, why, do you have days more interesting than that??

sure

Why, only last friday I had three windows open, one to Traders' Room and two to Investors' Room. Refreshed a thread in TR, login screen came up. Login screen however said "currently logged in as Gausie". Didn't do anything, moved to one of the IR windows which was on thread list and refreshed that. Top of thread list then said "you are not currently logged in". Refreshed again a couple of times, same result. Then clicked on a thread link in IR, login screen came up, again saying "currently logged in as Gausie". Now both windows are on login screen. Refreshed both, still on login screen and still saying logged in. Pressed "Back" on IR screen and refreshed, now said "currently logged in as Gausie" on thread list, and works as normal. Same in TR. Never actually logged in again.

It was wild.

Oh OK, you're perfectly entitled to be blasabout it then.

Yes, a Concrete Ban on any PDX Threads, automatic lock down of all existing PDX Threads, and a trial period to see how Gausie and Hoots handle same (;-o

Heatmaps


Just one list of BB threads to sort through!

Just a quickie, when i put a link on here, it is not 'live'... am i doing something wrong, or do you do it slightly different on this site..?? TIA

alecm,

You need to actually code the HTML for the link at the moment:

ie:
<a href="http://www.yoururlgoeshere">http://www.yoururlgoeshere</a>

HTH

re: #94 - I note that the standards of accuracy have continued. In the report on BOC's figures, "down by" confused with "down to" - would have given a little frisson to any BOC holders who read that before they checked the price.

On a related tack, how do you search for, or scroll through past stories once they're not on the front page?

A system that works and something worth reading on the bulletin boards?

How about an easy way to see the benefits offered by your premium services !

AAhhh, thanks Tulletj

Technical request.

Could you please change to simple password authentication, like most other sites.
I want to be able to access pages using

http://username:password@pageURL

We're not talking official secrets here so I can't see why a secure login page is really necessary.
