The ability is there. Call the help desk.

A "NOTES" column would be useful to identify source strategy, trade limits, parallel options activities, etc.

I agree. This issue is covered in another IR with more votes. Move your votes there.

I agree. Even a "Notes" column where the user could specify the search or other source for the choice would be good.. I had to read the details of this IR to understand the intent. The IR title is not clear.

I agree. I'd like to see them as column totals in the stock list but beside the graph would be better than nothing.

I've been wanting this for years. Sorry I can't vote for your idea - I'm out of votes!

I was going to submit this as an idead I called Implied Intra-day Volume (IIV). Since there are 390 minutes in a normal trading day, take 1/390 of the 50 day Avg. Volume multiplied times the number of minutes elapsed so far that day began and you have the IIV. You would then be able to compare the day's actual volume to the IIV and spot stocks that have jumped way aheadof normal sales early in the day. At the end of the day you can compare the day's volume with the average and see that you had a big day. However, it's more important to spot this kind of move at 10:00 or 11:00 than at the end of the day.

Please see my IR to "Add Market Data to Unisearch" I say that when you click an open box under "Parameter" in the Unisearch tool, a list would appear like it does now, except that the list would say "Stocks' Industry Groups, Sectors, and MARKET". When you pick "Market" you get access to the "color Guard" data and to the VVC averages for the day or time in question. this would allow you to set up searches that only work when the MTI is above 0.9 or when the BSR is below .3 but trending up for 3 days. It would also allow you to choose stocks with "Lower-than-average" P/E ratios by finding the P/E (or whatever) of the VVC and comparing your findings to that number - AUTOMATICALLY!

I think this is an important data point. I don't want to buy the top ten from a search that only found 15 results. I want to be buying the "Best of the Best" from a search. In other words, only the top 20-30% of the findings in a search. That means I need 30-50 results to be comfortable. I can use the "Quick Test All" method described elsewhere, but this is a lot of needless keystrokes.

Someone in my user group suggested using VV&s "Quick Test All" option because that tells you how many winners, losers, and total in "All". However, if the search returned more than 100 you still don't know how many were found.

This feature may be heard to implement in a "real Time" environment but it could and should be added to the EOD segment of the platform for VV-7

I agree 100%. I've been out of votes for a year and ideas still come along weekly. I can't even agree with others' ideas, such as yours. I don't think VV development is even looking at user IRs anymore so why do I bother and worry? Frankly, I don't know.

See my IR to "Add Market Data to Unisearch". It covers this same point. I can't vote for this idea because I'm out of votes.

modify the option pricing model to list strike prices in $1 increments. The $2.50 model is outdated.

commented
The price of the underlying stock usually dictates the strike price increments. Compare Google (GOOG) and Citibank (C), for example. One underlying is around $500 and the other at $5 and their actual options increments reflect that difference. Furthermore, the model should imitate the real world and NOT have increments that are not actually available in the marketplace.

A problem I see here is sorting out the bankruptcies from the privatizations from the mergers. When Merril Lynch disappeared it was by acquisition by BAC. Other stocks just went belly-up.

I agree with Ed Stead's comment that the suggestion should be two- one that addresses the sector and industry viewers and one that affects the unisearch capability.

There shouls be separate portfolios/watchlists as you say, but, more importantly, there should be separate industry groups so you can exclude or include leveraged products as you desire. Furthermore, ALL ETFs should be excluded from the calculation of the VVC. One in eight entries in the database is now an ETF! this distorts many of the basic tenets that the VV system is based on. Go back to December '08 when the BSR fell to .07. There were about 60 "Buy" rated stocks - 45 of which were CONTRA ETFs.

I agree. We should also have an "All Time Low". A stock's price history is available and should be sortable. Call tech support for details.

Additionally, a default could be set in unisearch to start with the search list open or closed. Now it defaults to wherever it was when last closed.
