StockSpy

I bought this on a whim sevral months ago after buying my new iMac. Since then Ive discovered many traits that make me glad I did.

I saw the 200 day simple moving average line and wondered how I might reset it to a 50-day. Support pointed me to the tiny gear in the upper right-hand corner which let me set the number of days to any one of several options, from 10 to 500. I could use the EMA instead of SMA, and they included something called Parabolic SAR and Billinger Bands, which I had never even heard of.

My retirement is just getting started so I sent an email to Support asking about some historical "opening value" data for a simulation project. They responded that they didnt have anything like that, but included a URL to where I found almost exactly what I was looking for.

Im starting to actively manage my portfolio and, while their disclaimer says its a "research tool" and not intended for technical analysis, etc., I see this as an important source of information.

Also, when dealing with an application of this level of complexity, the quality of their Support team is critical. I have contacted them a couple of times now and their response was both accurate and timely. I like this product and the company behind it.

UPDATE: I’m a casual investor but StockSpy lets me have my whole portfolio along the lefthand edge of its screen, with current and delta (amount and percent) right next to each security. I can click on any of tghem and get all the information (and more!) that I’ll ever need. Having used it for years now (iMac version 2.91) I can still say it’s a five-star product.
