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

Well, I have looked at ADVFN and this BB and they both have fixed font in the BB. The list of threads is in proportional font on both of them.

Just noticed there is no "N" on certain stocks on MoneyAM stockwatch i have created. I noticed this because I track these stock on advfn.

eg today there were RNSs' for ELH, RGU and PIZ, for example, but there is no "N" displayed next to the stocks and in fact when you click on the epic there are no RNS headlines when in fact there were RNSs' issued today for these stocks.

Haystack - I know A***N BB also uses fixed font - maybe this site has just copied them without considering a more readable font.

Fixed is necessary if you want to post something in tabular form. I think the best solution would be to provide tags to turn fixed font on for a post when required.

Have you tried inserting some html?

kajman, theres no need to use the ***'s. No one gets banned here for posting the name of a competitor. Even ADVFN.

Or am I tempting fate?

:-)

Well I had never thought of that. Yes that's very clever so now I can
read my own posts clearly. I just need to persuade everyone else to do the same thing.
Trouble is, this is likely to cause people to show off with all sorts of special effects,
which would completely miss the point. I think that sort of behaviour should not
be encouraged in fact it should be stamped on heavily.

I just want clickable URLS within posts. Is that not possible on this site?

Like this?

Yep. How come mine don't do that?
What do I have to add to an ordinary URL?
I can't see anything in the Help area. Is it there somewhere?

Juzzle,
this will hopefully be changing shortly,

In order to make the clickable until then, enclose them like:
&lta href="http://www.website.com">what text you want clickable</a>

and it will produce:
what text you want clickable

hope this helps.

More news would be good, it seems that the archive started when the web site did.

I'd like to see stockwatch page news announcements done in a better way. Nothing-Ventured's monitor doesn't display an "A" or "N" icon, but instead displays the time of the last announcement, (which is highlighted with a coloured background for 10 minutes). This makes announcement's easy to spot (in fact, it's linked to AFX and newspaper/other reports as well which is even better). The way ADVFN and MoneyAM do this makes it difficult to pick up on any subsequent announcements after the first.

It's such a simple idea but I find myself subscribing to N-V's streaming monitor just for this feature.

edit: double post

I'd like to see a button or link to companies websites. I'm sure people who post would be happy supply them to save AM having to find them. Could this be a potential revenue source?

End of day data downloads please!

Can we keep the buy/sell/?%'s on the stockwatch page please.

Many thanks

I've been busy last week, didn't have chance to pop in. Impressed by the revamped, more visual stockwatch. Moving around now, getting familiar.

Biffer,

Data downloads are something that has been mentioned before and is something I am looking to provide, I will look in more detail at this during this week. If you have not heard anything by Friday, can you please email me: jonathan@moneyam.com...

Thanks,

J.

teletiger,

The buy/sell/%'s *are* on the stockwatch page?

If you click on StockWatch, and then 'customise this watchlist' you will see them in the available fields box?

If you have any problems, please contact support@moneyam.com

Any mileage in a box on create thread that allows you to post simultaneously on both the Investors and traders threads - ie a 'mutual' thread as it does seem a little daft to have to read two threads where often information is duplicated??
