  1. Create a preset search that looks for stocks meeting George Nicholson's Triple-Play.

    George Nicholson's idea of a Triple-Play was briefly mentioned in the old NAIC handbook. With all the great technology in the online SSG tools, it would be nice to have a preset search that would pull in stocks possibly meeting the three requirements for a Triple-Play. Apparently, the aspects of a T/P are found if one has a Value Line account, and many of us don't, or don't have access via libraries.

  4. 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.

  5. Add a timestamp to the Member Sentiment study date so we can tell if a number of studies were done in a short period of time.

    With a timestamp and the study date, we could see if a number of studies were done at essentialy the same time indicating that they were probably all done by the same person or maybe a lot of studies done after an online presentation like Stock Up or Ticker Talk.

  6. 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

  8. Timely Stock price data feed

    Currently I can get accurate closing prices and updates using TK but not the SSG+ which is a whole day behind. Can this timeliness be improved?

    Changed from ‘under review’ to ‘no status’ as we have no current plans to pursue intra-day pricing. In our review so far we have not discovered a service that will provide intra-day pricing without raising our data services costs dramatically. This issue is being kept open for voting.

  9. Print Peer Data

    Could you add a print option for the peer graphs? I tried to print the screen but the output showed the graph printed over the SSG so it was unreadable. A printout of some of the peer graphs would be very useful at club meetings.

  10. Ability to create a new porfolio based upon results of stock search

    I used the search tool to look for Communication Services companies - it would be nice to be able to create a new portfolio of the companies I found by importing into a new portfolio and then work on refining the SSGs once I get them into the new portfolio

  11. Traveling Side Bar

    The Command buttons (File Data Print etc.) on the upper right of the form would be much more convenient if they were located on a tab on the right side. A traveling tab such as in the Online Value Line would be fantastic.

    Ability to compare more than 3 peers and/or to export peer data to excel so that the data can be manipulated to allow a more detailed comparison outside of SSG.

  13. Notes

    Large "Note" section so we can copy and paste an article on the company. Also we could paste an URL into the "Notes".

  14. Allow price override and also display calculated value in Section 4

    In section 4a or 4b, when entering P/E and EPS values to get calculated prices, there are times when it is appropriate to use some value other than the calculated values. In Toolkit, the calculated values are displayed but crossed out, and the adjusted value shown. I would prfer that action, rather than showing only the adjusted value. If I adjust a price, I still want to be able to see the calculated value I adjusted from.

  15. Uniform order of the sales and eps columns on all pages/documents

    Order the sales and eps columns so they are in the same order on SSG side 1, Qtr Trend Rpt and PERT.

  16. PERT Report Sorting defaults to alphabetical in PDF - an error issue?

    When creating a PDF document for the PERT, the created version defaults to alphebatical sorting rather than keeping the sort order chosen. The attached file was created with sorting on the UD ratio but that sort did not remain. I'm looking at this as an error reporting issue rather than a suggestion as I feel like it may be an oversight.

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

    Value Links provides free access for Dow 30 stocks. It would be nice to include a link to the Value Line for these stocks, or at least allow users to add custom links.

  18. Add FTM EPS and the average of TTM and FTM EPS to the Valuation and Return section of the SSGPlus

    Add FTM EPS and the average of TTM and FTM EPS to the Valuation and Return section of the SSGPlus similar to what is done in Toolkit 6 in order that users have a reference value to use for their 'Low EPS Forecast' value.
