Submit and Vote on Ideas for SSGPlus, CoreSSG and Stock Comparison Guide Apps

How can we improve our Stock Selection Guide Tools?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  2. Quick Navigation should be simplified.

    There should only be one field for entry of the ticker. If the company is in the user's database, it should be listed for selection, as it is now. In addition to the company name, there should also be an optional choice to load a new datafile. Having a separate field for entering the ticker for a new company should be unnecessary.

  3. Add an option to the FILE menu to allow for "Add to a Portfolio"

    When completing a study that we want to add to an existing portfolio or watch list, it would be helpful (and simpler) if the user could do that directly from the study, instead of having to return to the list of portfolios and then edit the portfolio to add the stock.

  4. Graphical Stock Comparisons

    Evaluating a company strictly on price performance is not the primary purpose of the tool and there are many sites that do this already. We suggest checking out the ‘Price Charts’ research links in the tool.

  5. Summary of Potential Return

    Expand the Summary of Potential Return and Total return to include an automatic comparison to the member sentiment results.

  7. dividend growth

    will be a good idea to see dividend growth since div+growth is in foundation of NAIC ideology. Personally, I like to see low div yield next to high div yield.

  10. Show horizontal scroll at the bottom of the My Studies list

    I like the SSG library but find it difficult to maneuver through the list. It would be helpful if a horizontal scroll bar was visible all the time instead of having to scroll to the bottom of the list to see the other columns.

  14. Notes Default Settings

    With the new notes feature the Staff and Community notes defaults to being on. I recommend that the default be changed to "off" or allow user to set global defaults to their preference. The community notes are often inane and useless.

  15. Add an "Are You Sure" to the Update All Button

    That button is DANGEROUS! I accidentally pressed it and ALL my studies were updated!!! Not only did this take a LONG time but all my history of SSGs was gone! Why not add an ARE YOU SURE confirmation?

  16. Change Peer Averages to Average Only Chosen Peers

    Currently the peer averages are calculated from all companies in the same industry of a similar size. This change would average data from just the 3 chosen peers.

  17. Add CNBC to Research/Analyst Estimates

    Add CNBC since the site gives a 3-5 yr EPS growth estimate, and a comparison to peers, industry, and the S&P500. This information is lacking on most of the research websites.

  19. Pre-defined screens should allow additional screeing

    Allow pre-defined screens to use additional search criteria, in addition to the values for predefined screens. For example, my club (like many) has too many large and not enough small companies. I love A-List Stocks pre-defined screen, but would like to limit the results to just small companies.
