Hi rfm010,


So sorry for the delayed response. Based on user feedback and the fact we are focused on fundamental long-term investing, we changed the default chart duration to 1 year. We do realize that some users will want a different default and we plan to offer this as a setting in the near future.


Thanks,

Daniel

thanks for your delayed response daniel.  must say i'm still a bit put off the way i was blown off while the commenter's question was promptly answered. 

so fine.  if the majority of people want the 1 year chart then go for it.  but a setting for changing the default view is a remarkably simple thing to add, so i hope that "the near future" means rather soon. 


in several of the chat rooms of the 6 authors i subscribe to people have made the same point that i am making.  every weekend i like to review my portfolio.  i open each stock page in a tab, go from tab to tab and there is the 5 day chart showing me what has happened.  until you started charging, and then convenience disappeared.  sometimes it seems you lose what you pay for.  clicking the 5 day icon may seem a simple thing but when you have to do it for every holding it becomes an unnecessary irritant.  as a paying customer i take unnecessary irritants as a personal affront.  this is a simple fix, hope to see it in the near future.

Hi,


Can you give an example stock where you can't see 1 year worth of data?

thanks for nothing daniel.  you took the time to reply to beabaggage but you couldn't reply to the original post?  not a good way to treat a customer.

Daniel, i would think that if an SA admin could take the time to reply to a comment within my thread then he could have the courtesy of replying to my original post.  but perhaps i am wrong?

this appears to be fixed now as far as viewing all data for all time periods ( the default view is 1yr)  thanx Bea

if the default view is one year then the topic of this thread is not fixed.   still waiting for a reply from SA.

as the original poster here i wonder if there is an answer to my question?   i want the default graph to show the 5 day data as used to be the case.  i want that because i can see the hourly fluctuations for each day of the past week.  when i open a series of tabs to check my holdings i liked not having to click on each chart to get the 5 day chart.  i minor irritation perhaps, but so is paying what i'm paying for a sudden decline in quality of service.

yes, the charts are not showing the results for longer charts as well.. you have to go to advanced charts to see a 1yr result for example?? Bea
