I just looked at the StockWatchPro site and the product looks very nice. It's too bad it runs from the QCharts data feed; that pretty much eliminates any motivation I might have to explore it further. I hope that Lycos will someday decide to really support QCharts by correcting the myriad of data issues which have been posted here over the last two years. It's pretty clear that there is little chance of that happening. The fundamental data is 2-3 months old. Data feeds are often several minutes late. Splits are often not recognized until someone complains. Merging of old/new data on symbol or exchange changes is not automatic. NYSE activity does not display pre-market. Etc., etc., etc.... I was disgusted to see development effort put into a new application in the face of so many glaring deficiencies within the existing product. In my opinion, this is to lure in new users who may be ignorant of all the shortcomings. It completely ignores their current loyal user community. This doesn't say much for management...
