What’s the quickest way to scroll through a chart list?

 | 

Scrolling through 100’s of charts is easy using the CandleGlance charts at StockCharts.com. It all starts with a favorites list (basic subscription required). For those without a basic subscription, pre-defined CandleGlance groups can be found on the Free Charts page. In the example below, I am using my favorites list with the stocks in the Nasdaq 100. The first step is to choose your chart list. The second step is to click “view all”, which is just to the right of the chart.

Clicking “view all” will show 10 full size charts per page. The page will refresh and users can now use the drop down menu to select CandleGlance charts.

After selecting CandleGlance, the page will refresh to show 30 small charts per page. This makes it easy to scroll through 100’s of charts looking for specific patterns or indicator signals. Notice that there are two drop down menus at the top. These can be used to change the duration of the chart or even change to P&F charts. The second menu offers 22 different indicators at a glance. This makes it easy to spot MACD signal line crossovers, divergences and many other signals. Enjoy!
