How can we improve Yahoo Finance charts?

← Finance ChartIQ

The old interface was better in many ways. It is harder to navigate between stocks now and lines do not all show up as configured (still).

  1. For several months the lines in the graphs when I add 3 simple moving averages do not always fully render. I could get around it by making the lines really thick.... annoying. New interface does not have option to make them thicker. not all 3 lines show up as configured.
  2. When I get the graph settings I want, I want to be able to step through each stock in my portfolio. This was missing, you have re-added it, but it always goes back to top, so I have to scroll down and find my place every time.
  3. The only reason I use Yahoo over Google Finance is because it is better and familiar... so if you keep making it different yet LESS functional for real use, I will abandon yahoo finance for something better.

Setup 3 portfolios...with at least 6 to 20 stocks in each. Setup three graph indicators. Use 22" or larger LED screen. Zoom to 120% on firefox. Now, navigate around all 3 portfolios and you tell me if its a good interface now?

    yahoo doesnt care what we want
    it wants ad space, forget us

  • Mohnish Puvathingal commented  ·   ·  Report

    new charts not good, not clear or precise, want to go back to non-beta charts

  • Philip Drooks commented  ·   ·  Report

    The new charts are awful. Fidelity and TD Ameritrade have far superior charts. PD

    After so many negative responses, Yahoo should stop this chart or at least provide an option NEW or OLD. this way many people will be Happy.

    Why would you take a useful, informative and user friendly chart and change it? It makes no sense. There is nothing wrong with the old charts, please allow us to use them.

    Now that I've figured out how to "work" with the charts you've changed the look again and more importantly, I'm unable to save charts with multiple symbols. PLEASE REVERT BACK TO LAST ITERATION! As with much website redesign, it seems as if the people doing the work/deciding what "looks good" are too close/too familiar.

    New Charts are USELESS, and I HATE them. Its a total waste of time to try and "fix" the new version. GO BACK TO THE OLD CHARTS, YAHOO!!! Why do you continually break things that are working right??? I am telling you now that I will NOT use the new chart feature, and you WILL LOSE any ad click revenue from me unless you go back the old charts. I will take my clicks to another chart service.
    GO BACK TO THE OLD CHARTS!!!

    Reiterating what others have said - can't read the numbers for indicators as the cursor moves across the screen. Not sure what stochastic/moving average/etc. number is for a given day. Have needed to switch everything to excel to manually input so I can check the numbers.

    Destroyed the precision!

    Was it intentional on the eve of a bubble?

  • Aadu Adok commented  ·   ·  Report

    new thing doesnt remember my added indicators. I need to add them every time I open that page. VERY annoying

  • Bill OBrien commented  ·   ·  Report

    the indicator box of moving averages doesn't display the number in the box, as the pointer is moved across the chart? ridiculous

  • Bill OBrien commented  ·   ·  Report

    dont like the big intrusive BANNER, in the way of trying to effectively use... da

  • Bill OBrien commented  ·   ·  Report

    turn this terrible chart off and go back!!
