Screen Shots and Descriptions

We consider screen "real estate" to be a precious commodity and designed the program to use screen space as efficiently as possible.


 Main Screen with Intraday Charts 

You activate intraday charts for a stock by double-clicking on the stock's row in the table. Other options for the stock are accessed by right-clicking on the row and picking an option from the popup menu. The intraday stock charts are updated together with your portfolio view. You can open as many charts simultaneously as you want. The only limitation is your computer memory.


Integrated Trading is the latest feature to be added

 Main Screen with Integrated Trading 

You no longer need to open a browser to place trades. Everything can be done from inside QuoteTracker. Just double click on the BID, ASK or LAST fields for a stock and QT will fill the needed info into the trade panel. Enter the password and click submit. Done! Daily activity is automatically updated.

The trading and transaction panels can be set to show in separate floating windows. You can configure QT to handle multiple accounts from the same broker or from different brokers.


 Portfolio Editing 

You can have as many portfolios and stocks within the portfolios as you want. For stocks for which you enter the Base Price or # Shares information, the program will track the total value and changes in value of the portfolio.


 Preferences: Connection 

There are probably hundreds of sites offering stock quotes on the World Wide Web. We created many Site Definition Files that allow you to fetch stock quotes from several such sites. This Preferences page allows you to pick which site to use in fetching the quotes and to specify individual site access parameters if needed. In addition, if you're accessing Internet through a proxy server, this is where you enter the proxy's parameters.

When we update the Site Definition Files or create new ones, we will place them on our web site. You can update yours by clicking on the "WebUpdate" button.

Please note that if you know of a site that provides real-time or delayed stock quotes and would like us to allow you to connect to it, you can e-mail us at Support@QuoteTracker.com with the URL of the site and anything else needed to connect to it, and we will create a new file that will allow you to use the site in this program.


 Preferences: Fonts 

In this tab, you can pick the fonts for the main window's portfolio table.


 View Editing 

In this tab, you can pick and arrange the viewable columns for your portfolio table. Note: not all sites provide information for all columns.


 Preferences: Charts 

In this tab, you can select the colors for the intraday charts.


 Preferences: Miscellaneous 

In this tab, various alert, display and cache settings can be changed.


 Historical Charts 

You can view historical charts for any stock from BIGCHARTS.COM(tm). You may wonder why we display ads on this page. BigCharts(tm) is a free site that provides this data, but it exists because of its ad revenue. We would not want to deprive the site of its revenue source, thus its ads will appear in this window. We do not receive any money from this site or its sponsors. Please support the sponsors of BigCharts(tm) so that they can continue to bring this great service to the WWW audience.
