I understand the SSGs are for finding stocks that fit the BI criteria. What if we could enter the price we paid for a stock to evaluate it
I understand the SSGs are for finding stocks that fit the BI criteria. What if we could enter the price we paid for a stock to evaluate it going forward. The BUYs HOLDs SELLs are based on the current price, right? If we paid more than the current price, the SSG does't show us the potential in our owned stock. Right?

"Quarterly Data" graphs: Add a "most recent 3 years" option.
"Quarterly Data" graphs: add a "most recent 3 years" option. This is especially important for fast growing, small companies.

Having a 3 year option would help us to visually see the recent change.

Pop-Up window showing math calculation when moving cursor over a particular field.

Incorporate/Integrate Stock Research Form into SSG so judgments,and date automatically transfer
Incorporate /integrate Stock Research From with SSG so that the Stock Research Form is automatically populated by judgments you make on the SSG. This would be similar to what happens in Turbo Tax Software's Step-By-Step Program feature. It asks you questions and based on your answer the 1040 Form is filled in. For example, the highest /lowest and average PEs could easily be transferred to the Form after that judgment is made.
I am raising this because i find it cumbersome and inefficient to be switching back and forth between the SSG(internet) and the Stock Research Form(offline word document). If…

Add the ability to import portfolio data from Folio Investing portfolios
For those of us who use Folio Investing as a brokerage, having the ability to import portfolio data (portfolio name, security info, number of shares) would provide a convenient way to keep data between the BI Online Tools and Folio in sync and eliminate manual input of data.

The study workflow of save/abandon/exit is confusing.
Saving/closing/exiting/abandoning are confusing. Some users are not aware of the save function, others don't know what to do when all they want to do is look at another company.

Outliers & Historical P/Es
When one excludes an EPS in Section1, it is likely the High and Low EPS will be outliers in Section 3- automatically exclude them. Additionally/Alternatively allow the user to exclude P/Es in the historical graph. Right now FB and SBUX 10-year historical graphs are pretty useless due to one or more year have extremely high P/Es.

Add Value Links for Dow 30 stocks, or allow users to add custom links

Display the average price for a stock, graphically, and include it on the front page of the SSG along with sales, pretax profits and earning
In addition, or instead of, having vertical price bars, showing high and low for a given year, show the average price as a graph line. It would be nice to see how the price moved along with the sales, earnings, etc graphically

Add the ability to evaluate Dow Jones, S&P and NASDAQ averages
These averages have prices, EPS and dividends. Section 1 plot would not have a sales line but would have EPS line with a projection and price bars. Section 3 would have prices, EPS, P/E ratios, dividends, yields and could have projected highs and lows. We need the ability to evaluate the market as well as individual stocks.

Suggest only One Tool
I know way to much energy explaining the difference and frankly the difference is not worth the time and effort spent. May I recommend that there be only one tool that is continually improved. Perhaps there is 2 modes expert and newbie.
