Alt+M in the CoreSSG.
Alt+M is a feature that is highly used in the Toolkit and it would be great to see it in the CoreSSG

Create a new report to show user judgment (forecast) reference points
The report could be printed alone or with the SSG PDF and would show similar information as the 4 judgment/forecast pop-up windows in order to provide a reference of what was chosen and the other reference points that were displayed at that point in time.

The two date columns in the list of stocks should be more informative
By default, the original date of the study is added to the name of the stock, so there is no need to show it in a separate column. The much more relevant dates are the Most Recent Price and the Judgment Date, which would be the last date in which any of the judgment items are modified. It would also be helpful to see the Most Recent Quarter date. All three of these dates are available and select-able in the Library listing. Let the user select the one or two preferred dates to be displayed.

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.

Filter-Out Stock Screener Results
In stock screener results,
One thing i would like is if we could have ability to filter out (i.e. remove say a particular industry, instead of filtering only for a particular industry)6 votes -
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.

Improve the speed of updating and retrieval
The refresh speed is very slow. Need to improve speed for updating and retrieval
9 votesWe have had no complaints about the speed of the service. Changing status on this item from ‘Under Review’ to ‘No Status’ but keeping it open for history.

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.

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.

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

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?
17 votesChanged 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.

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.

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

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.

PEERs
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.

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

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.
