While I haven't used it extensively, it does make for good first check to see if the issue is even close. It also points me to the problem areas. Just a thought - perhaps an added RS calculation to replace the trending line of the RS in a graph? A static way to show if the RS in increasing or decreasing. Example: Stock A is has an RS of 80. Stock B is also 80. The difference is Stock A was 60 two weeks ago. Stock B was 98 two weeks ago. Maybe a little up/down arrows nest to the RS? Not sure what time frame one would use though. Bottom line: given the price of your tool - it works great.

Marty, Charley, Dan, Norm,
 
I'll have to agree with Norm on this one...what works well for me = would=20 make someone else's eyes glaze over. I think the key point is to develop = something that allows you to keep all your thoughts and notes in one = place so=20 that it allows for methodical tracking and mining of potential = candidates. I=20 like Excel because it gives me a lot of power for combining information = from=20 several sources through its macros and formula functions. Others here on = the=20 list use it for its VB coding features, etc. (Now *that* will make *my* = eyes=20 glaze over!). I still keep my journal by hand because there's something = about=20 the physical act of committing thoughts to paper that marks them = indelibly in my=20 mind. But when it comes to tracking large volumes of info, I like to use = colors,=20 codes, etc. and then quickly filter/sort for what I'm evaluating. That = allows me=20 to build meaningful analytical relationships in my mind. But that won't = work for=20 all folks because everybody processes info so differently. That said, = however, I=20 uploaded a skeleton Excel spreadsheet a month or so ago that allows you = to start=20 using Excel if you're so inclined. This one has links to the daily DGO = reports=20 for updating various info, links to free sites on the web for charts and = CANSLIM=20 checkups either with Mike Gibbons' tool and/or the IBD stock checkup. = (Note: the=20 first time you link to the IBD site, it will give you an error.
