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

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??

Croc, Mike, techies at AM,


Have you any plans to have the ability to click on an individual stock name, not epic, to be directed to a thread devoted to that particular stock for discussion, information, etc? I think it would be an asset to your site.

heatmaps as in http://screening.nasdaq.com/heatmaps/heatmap_100.asp

time configurable scans - (ie risers / fallers in last xx minutes etc)

oh yes & an api to drive metastock pro etc ( pretty pls)

Homer,

What problems are you having with the streaming? It is no use just saying it isnt working.

What is happening when you try (symptoms)
What system setup do you have?
Are you behind a firewall? If so, what type? (personal, corperate?)

If you are behind a corperate firewall, there is a probability that it is blocking you from accessing the streaming server ports. And in which case, a fix for this will (hopefully) be going in place tonight...

Thanks,

J.

Please can we have UKX allowed in our watch lists on the stockwatch page.

Why no have a facility where, if you click on, say, the EPIC box, you are directed to any, or the most recent Shares Mag articles for that particular company?

There are others ways this could be done, but would certainly differentiate this site from others if it could be done.

Hate to be the boring fundamentalist here, but are we going to see more info on the Research tab?

You see, i am still having to go to the 'other' place for company analysis, which is far more detailed.

Surely we can get the same info they can - if its a question of money - i don't mind paying! ;)

To answer charts question- variable bar periods and configurable
left/right axes are on the wishlist.
I actually plan a scheme where the system estimates a sensible bar period
based on the size of the graph, then to let you configure it manually if
that still doesn't give enough control. Suggestions welcome for what system
should do if user selects a wildly inappropriate period. Maybe I'll have a
'period selector' dropdown where 'auto' is the default.
Currently focus is on adding more indicators,

streaming ukx prices are a must and they should be allowed on the watch list as Kajman mentioned

Treble

The portfolio section column widths.

Perhaps I am the only one losing money around here (LOL), but the % change and P/L Totals both have column withs that result in the - sign being shown on the line above.

Also as we seem to be able to mention competitors, it would be nice if threads about a stock could be grouped in the same way the do at iii.co.uk.

Your portfolio section throws this up

if you try to add a stock valued at 2p. It works ok if you value at 2.0p duh.

Maybe UKX is allowed on an account with a higher subscription rate, I am not sure.

Haystack,

You can not have delayed prices on a StockWatch that contains live prices...

If you have a subscription that allows live indices, then you can indeed have UKX on your StockWatch...

Hope this is of some use.

The site is already excellent, given the short period since official launch - but here are a few thoughts.

Fundamentals: have already been mentioned, but it would be good to have brokers consensus/forecasts/major shareholders etc...

Stockwatch: the column widths are too wide and (as has been mentioned before) although you can adjust them manually, the settings aren't saved. Also, I would like the option to move the chart/trade/news icons from the left of the screen as at present to the right of the screen and in the reverse order i.e. N first - plus there are currently no columns for XD or trade type (although this appears on the trades page). My Monitor on ADVFN also shows the UKX in real time at the top (but perhaps that's because I'm a L2 subscriber??) rather than the delay shown here.

URLs: it would be helpful if URLs on the message boards were automatically "live" without the need to wrap them in HTML to create a hyperlink.

Help Section: it would be useful to have guidance on basic formatting when posting messages. Most of it can be found by checking the source code, but there must be many members who still wonder how to use bold/italics or to post a chart, for example.

News: the lack of archive material is a bit of problem at present. If there's a trading update or new set of results from a company, you have to go to another site to enable any comparison with previous statements.

Futures: the Indices (DOW, Nasdaq and S+P500) seem to be on a 1hr+ time delay.

Sorry for the long shopping list, and many thanks for what you have already achieved....!! :))

Thanks for identifying portfolio problem -
as you say, entering a price of "2" crashes it,
but "2.0" or "3" is fine. Will fix this.
