  • Patent number: 8635130
    Abstract: The present invention provides a stock analysis, management and education system and process which, via an Internet based software application, allows a client to receive daily trading information on all the Stocks traded without having to conduct multiple queries and/or extended downloads. The system also provides for the efficient transfer of daily stock information from a server to a client's system by having the server receive and process into binary files stock information from exchanges. The client then establishes a communications link with the server, receives a list file, selects files from the list and receives those files. The system provide custom stock screening and display options, while significantly reducing download times by separating charting data from screening data and providing “quick update” files. Day Trading features enable an investor to day trade with relative low risk.
