The best online charting and indicator site for stocks

Recommended Posts

Hello..

 

I'm looking for the best online charting and indicator site?

 

At my pc at home home I've a couple of charting applications installed, but what if I for instance was at my folks place or maybe a friend and I suddenly wanted to watch a stockquote.

 

At the moment I use this one: http://investing.businessweek.com/research/stocks/charts/charts.asp?symbol=CW.L

 

I like it because of the many indicators and possibilities, but unfortunately I can't build a watchlist etc.:)

 

What online sites do you use?

 

Kind regards

Janus

How's it going?

 

Just wanted to ask...are you looking for a free charting set up on the web...or something subscription based?

 

Hello Reaver

 

Well... Since I started earlier this year I've taken a drawdown of 90%:embarassed:, I'm still in good mood, but for some reason I thought it would be easier to learn to trade or atleast easier not to act as an idiot sometimes.

 

I don't give up, I'm in a nice learning process, but huhh... experience costs :cool: As long as I learn something every day I'm happy and my beliefs in the greater still drives me.

**

I don't mind if it's subscription based as long it's good, but free stuff is allways nice :haha:

 

Cheers - and thanks for asking.

Hang in there man. Many of the pros have also blown out at one time or another. Making mistakes is not the problem..it's not learning from those kistakes that make someone a loser.

 

You're good to go. Stick it out and don't give up on yourself.

 

http://www.stockcharts.com has good charts from what I hear...they have a free and subscription based service...

 

Try looking into Stock Fetcher as well..not very familiar with it, but TinGull may can help you with that as I believe that is what he using at this time.

 

Like I said, hang in there. PM or post any questions you have and someone here can help you.

 

:D

quotetracker is a good charting tool, tons of good indicators. You have to subscribe to a feed or a brokerage that support QT, like MBtrading or IB. Feed is about 25$ but brokerage you can open an account and use the charts monthly fees. This is what I have as a backup when Tradestation goes down. The only downside of only having it without feed is there is no backfill (historical data missing) so have to keep it open/connected to get all the data to view all as far back as you want.

Hi torero, thank you for your response.

But my question was primarily targeted for webbased charting like the previous mentioned StockFetcher or the one from investing.businessweek :)

with hundred brains you will have hundred suggestions. All stock charts or indicator providers are there to stay long so they won't provide you the delayed charts and indicators as they won't like to drop a client. every business works for the betterment of customers as customers are the core base of ant\y business. so the bottom line which i would like to mention is charts and indicators are only tools which predicts the market movement but there is every possibility that they can move against the prediction so for that reason you must be too smart to handle such situation....

Im also interested in a site, but sort of a database of indicators specifically. I'm at the point to have a serious look though the indicators to see what works and where. If anyone knows a site that has a list of them including some background info would be great.

 

 

Re some previous posts,

 

Not sure about the incredible charts software, but the site also runs a free newsletter/mailinglist. Its surprisingly good for one of those "im doing it for you" sources, has good insights, and basic techincal analysis done for you every few days. My trading is very short term, it works well for me for long term analysis.

 

Also, gft's trading platform is excellent compared to other cfd providers, in aus at least. Just keep in mind their spreads are lower, but the price data is more volatile at the tick level to compensate (which is not necessarily a bad thing).

This is a good encyclopedia of basic indicators:

 

StockCharts.com - ChartSchool - Technical Indicators and Overlays

 

Certainly not exhaustive, but a good start.

I've been very impressed with FreeStockCharts.com - beautiful charts with many indicators to overlay. It is free and advertiser supported.

You and me both - freestockcharts.com is excellent.

    • In Italy, I saw many of our brothers from different parts of Africa, sleeping and living in the park, the weather was very cold and its obvious that they were looked down upon. It made me want to cry and several questions overwhelmed my heart.   Is it not better to remain in Africa than to be homeless in this freezing cold weather?   I wish I have all the money in the world to rescue them...   Is this the reason why our skin color is looked down upon?   Do our government officials see this sight when they also travel outside of the country...does it hurt them or pain them like it pained me?

    • Date: 28th March 2025.   Market Selloff Deepens as Tariff Concerns Weigh on Investors     Global stock markets extended their losing streak for a third day as concerns over looming US tariffs and an escalating trade war dampened investor sentiment. The flight to safety saw gold prices surge to a record high, underscoring growing risk aversion. Stock Selloff Intensifies The MSCI World Index recorded its longest losing streak in a month, while Asian equities saw their sharpest decline since late February. US and European stock futures also signalled potential weakness, while cryptocurrency markets retreated and bond yields edged lower. Investors are scaling back their exposure ahead of President Donald Trump’s expected announcement of ‘reciprocal tariffs’ on April 2. His latest move to impose a 25% levy on all foreign-made automobiles has sparked fresh concerns over inflation and economic growth, prompting traders to reassess their strategies. Investor Strategies Shift Market experts are adjusting their portfolios in anticipation of heightened volatility. ‘It’s impossible to predict Trump’s next move,’ said Xin-Yao Ng of Aberdeen Investments. ‘Our focus is on companies that are less vulnerable to tariff policies while taking advantage of market dips to find value opportunities.’ Yield Curve Signals Economic Concerns In the bond market, the spread between 30-year and 5-year US Treasury yields widened to its highest level since early 2022. Investors are bracing for potential Federal Reserve rate cuts if economic growth slows further. Long-term Treasury yields hit a one-month peak as inflation risks tied to tariffs spurred demand for higher-yielding assets. Boston Fed President Susan Collins noted that while tariffs may contribute to short-term price increases, their long-term effects remain uncertain. Gold Hits Record High as Safe-Haven Demand Rises Amid market turbulence, gold prices soared 0.7% on Friday, reaching an all-time high of $3,077.60 per ounce. Major banks have raised their price targets for the precious metal, with Goldman Sachs now forecasting gold to hit $3,300 per ounce by year-end. Looking Ahead As investors digest economic data showing US growth acceleration in Q4, attention will turn to Friday’s release of the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index—the Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation measure. This data will be critical in shaping expectations for future Fed policy moves. With markets on edge and trade tensions escalating, investors will closely monitor upcoming developments, particularly Trump’s tariff announcement next week, which could further dictate market direction.   Always trade with strict risk management.
