You can view a group of stock charts using the Slideshow Chart Viewer. The group of stocks that you view can be determined by the Slideshow Chart viewer page, based on Portfolios, Sectors or Watchlists. The group of stocks to view with the Slideshow Chart viewer can also be determined by the results of a Market Scan.
Figure 1 - Select the Portfolio, Sector or Watchlist to view in the Slide Show Chart viewer screen. This will start a progression of single charts per screen which you can view in large or small view.
Adding a Portfolio
To add a Portfolio, clock on Add a Portfolio from the Portfolio Creator start page. This will bring up a grid allowing you to input the following information:
- Symbol - the symbol of the stock. If you are not sure of the symbol but know the company name, use the Symbol Search tool.
- # of Shares - how many shares you purchased of the stock.
- Price per Share - the price you paid for the stock.
- Commission - the commission you were charged to complete the trade.
- Date Purchased - the date you purchased the shares.
With this information entered, the Portfolio Creator tool can track the performance of your stocks and Portfolio. If you simply want to monitor a group of stocks that you have not purchased, the Watch List Creator tool is probably more appropriate.
Once you have entered the stock position information in to the Portfolio Creator grid, give the Portfolio a name and click on Save Changes. The Portfolio will be available for viewing any time you log in to Stockscores.
