What programs/web tools can help me gather data from multiple sources regarding stocks and trading?
I am trying to gather select data from certain graphs and sources so I don’t have to visit each site individually everyday. Something like an RSS program on a massive scale that I can narrow down to certain things.
Hmmm. You seem to be asking for a free program called "Market Browser". You get the basic program for free and it allows you to input various symbols (up to 36 I think). Then it allows you to choose various tools (Technical analysis) to track your assets movements. The program then allows you to "drill down" on any particular asset and has a whole slew of web sites that give you various information just by click on the drill down menu.
So, where’s the cost? For about $60 a year you can upgrade your market browser charts by getting drawing tools to enhance your charts. Also, you get advertisements (via your email) occasionally from various sources who advertise through them.
Over all a very solid product. You won’t be disappointed!!
I have spent hundreds of dollars on paid sites and have gotten some pretty good charts but I still access my market browser charts quite often as they are convenient and nice to look at.
I hope that helps. Good luck in investing.
