Market Scanner

Scan the Market for Technical and Fundamental (where available) criteria and automatically create a data folder containing the results.  The Market Scanner features an easy to use, point and click interface using the Indicators and Fundamental criteria you select. After the scan is complete, you can easily scroll through the results using the basic charting facility in GemPro or your own charting software.  The Market Scanner is specifically for our MetaStock compatible data format.

 

Basic Charting

GemPro features a Charting utility that includes a selection of Moving Average indicators.  It is ideal to review the results of a Market Scan or the latest activities of securities in your WatchList folders.  Easy to use with the convenience of scrolling backwards or forwards through the list of securities selected.

 

Portfolio Manager

GemPro version 5.3.3 includes a Portfolio Manager integrated with GemPro's MetaStock compatible database for automatic Portfolio valuations.  Key features of the Portfolio Manager include Capital Gains reporting, Dividend recording and reporting functions for Current values.

 

Maintain Data by Industry Sector

A new feature in GemPro is the ability to easily maintain your database in the new S & P Industry Groups. This feature allows you to move your data files to a folder structure that reflects the constituents of any one of the first two industry sector levels.

To move your data files to a new Industry level is as simple as clicking an icon on the toolbar and selecting the level required.  Maintaining your database in the desired sector level is just as simple.

For more information, please refer the the Help file installed with GemPro.

Custom Watch List data folders

GemPro makes it possible to create your own customisable folders containing data for the specific stocks, securities or indices you have chosen.  Each Watch List can be easily updated or amended when you need to add or remove items.

GemPro Display Grid

GemPro provides a window to your data through the Portfolio Grid, which includes many features for viewing, sorting, locating and managing your data. The Portfolio grid includes three sections:

  • The World Exchanges view shows the available exchanges and a list of the stocks or securities for each exchange in a spreadsheet layout. It is possible to view, edit, chart and sort the data in the grid, as well as view the stocks related to a specific industry group.

  • The Snapshot view provides the interface to real-time data for selected ASX stocks and indices. The collected data can then be distributed to your database for “end-of-day” analysis of the intra-day data.

  • The Watch List view allows you to create your own customisable lists to quickly check the progress of your favourite stocks.

The illustration below depicts the World Exchanges’ section showing stocks specific to the selected Industry Group.

Quick Find Utility

GemPro includes a Quick Find Utility to help you easily locate the folder for a specific stock or security.  This is a particularly handy tool to locate the folder for a stock, especially when your database is in an Industry Group structure.

To launch the Find utility, double-click the icon or single click and select the Open option from the pop-up menu.

The main GemPro program does not need to be running to use the Quick Find utility.
