| Updating stock prices and fundamental information |
TOP |
|
You can update your closing price and fundamental data in ShareScope Gold, Plus and
Pro.
Nothing is quicker or easier than ShareScope for updating the high quality daily and
fundamental data. |
 |
|
After the market closes at 4:30pm, all the share prices are checked and adjusted for share
splits, consolidations, rights issues, etc to give you accurate information. You can then update
the historic price information after 6pm.
The daily updates of results, forecasts, analysts' buy/hold/sell recommendations,
directors' dealings and unit trusts are also extremely fast and can be updated after midday.
With a single key press (F9), you will receive all the data since your last update. You will
never lose any data, as ShareScope automatically updates from the last date on your database for an
unlimited time period.
The information is downloaded directly from our own server, so there is no tiresome waiting
on the web, and calls are charged at the local rate from within the UK. All you need is an Internet
connection or a properly installed modem. Click the Update button or type F9 in ShareScope and it
does the rest. It is possible to update from anywhere in the world, using a reliable internet
connection.
As a rough guide, the daily download on a broadband connection takes about 20 seconds. The
weekly update of fundamental data on a Friday takes up to a minute.
ShareScope Pro and ShareScope Plus let you connect to a streaming data feed.
For ShareScope Pro the feed is real time and you can tailor the exchanges and delivery
levels to suit your connection and computer performance. Data is available from the LSE, FTSE,
NASDAQ, NYSE, AMEX, FOREX, CAC40, DAX, S&P and Dow Jones. You also get a streaming professional
news feed from AFX.
For ShareScope Plus the feed is delayed by 15 minutes and the share price data is provided
in 15 second snapshots. Delayed data is available from the LSE, FTSE, NASDAQ, CAC40, DAX, S&P
and Dow Jones. You also get a 15 minute delayed news feed from AFX.
At ShareScope we take the integrity and accuracy of our data very seriously and we make all
attempts possible to ensure that the data we provide is of the highest quality. Sometimes
differences in calculation methods do exist (especially for indices and accounting ratios) and we
are happy to explain to customers any instance where our data may be different to that of other
sources.
