Arrow The best online charting and indicator site for stocks

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/re...sp?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?

We discussed some options here - http://www.traderslaboratory.com/for...ares-2616.html

Not all are web based though. I would say that prophet.net is a good option for paid web based services.

For just charts that are free, I like quote.com and stockcharts.com.

Hello Reaver

Well... Since I started earlier this year I've taken a drawdown of 90%, 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 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

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.

Re: The best online charting and indicator site for stocks

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

Re: The best online charting and indicator site for stocks

I second the Prophet.net recommendation. I do end-of-day trades only and their free version is perfect. If you sign in it will remember your watchlists, setups, etc. Try their "Javacharts".
