Fix trying to go to Search after wanting to Abandon Study
When you are in a new study, decide you want to go back to Search and don't want to save the study, it doesn't Abandon. You have to either save the study, or go the Library in order for Abandon to be accepted.

Print Notes from the Note Window
It would be helpful if the notes could be printed from the note window without having to send them to Microsoft Office Quick Notes or One Note.
1 voteNotes can be printed to a PDF by appending them to the 2 page SSG report as a 3rd page.
To print the Notes, select ‘Print’ , then click on ‘Append Notes’ and then ‘Generate PDF’ and the notes will become part of the PDF. We are planning a new ‘Notes’ tab (rather than a popup) and will consider how printing would work from that screen. -
PERT Report PDF
If the report extends to more than one page, the headers should be repeated at the top of each page. Also, occasionally when I print a multi-page PERT Report, the last stock on the first page is split in half -- the top half is on one page, the bottom half of the row is on the top of the second page. The report needs to be generated in a way that will prevent this split.

Add "Prices current as of xx/xx/xx" to top of section 3
At the top of Section 3, there is plenty of room on the top line that displays the stock prices. How about adding "Prices current as of: xx/xx/xx". When working on an older study, the original date is shown in the title bar, so it's not necessarily clear that the prices displayed at the top of section 3 are more current than the Study Name/Date.
1 voteThanks for the suggestion!
The price date is shown next to the current price. -

Quarterly Data
Limit the Quarterly Data X-axis scale to 50% so the plots will not be compressed, making judgements near 10% data difficult.
1 voteHi,
There is an option to restrict the Y axis (height) scale to 50%. It is called ‘Limit 50% Growth’. The X axis can be set to show 5 years or 10 years of data.

Consistency on numbers for R2 on Stock Comparison Guide SCG
The Industry Average for R2 on the Stock Comparison Guide shows as a percentage rather than decimal. I'm assuming that 27.3% for an R2 is equivalent to .273.

Re-think Debt to Capital Ratio
Re-think the use of the Debt to Capital Ratio (D/C). Most members don’t understand what capital is. I have always assumed it is a measure of the financial strength of a company. If that’s the case, the ratio ignores the ability of the company to service its debt and its available cash, equivalents and marketable securities. Either make a strong argument for retaining the ratio, or consider other measures of the financial strength of companies in general. Consider using the Debt to Equity Ratio (D/E) or Interest Coverage (or “Times Interest Earned”) as a means to measure the financial strength…

Company search add checkbox
I’m looking at the Company Search section (via Core/Plus SSG), and I wish there was a checkbox or something on each stock when I’m going thru the Data Preview popup, for selecting out items I might be interested in looking further into - narrowing the list, as it were.
Yes, I can write down the ticker of each interesting stock, but if I could checkbox each one, and then only Company Search look at those, and refine the list further (by unchecking some), would sure be helpful.
Not sure how persistent I would want the checkboxes to be, wouldn’t want…1 vote -
Why does earnings & EPS shown on SSG not jive up with Etrade and other publications
Why does earnings & EPS and other data on SSG not jive up with that published on Etrade and else where?
1 voteThe earnings (EPS) that are used in the tools and stock data service are ‘Diluted EPS from Continuing Operations’.
There are the earnings from the GAAP definition of continuing operations divided by the common shares outstanding adjusted for the assumed conversion of all potentially dilutive securities. Securities having a dilutive effect may include convertible debentures, warrants, options, and convertible preferred stock.
These earnings are traceable back to the company’s official filing (10-Q, 10-K, 20-F) on the SEC website at http://www.sec.gov
Other financial resources may present different variations on earnings.
