New account in the works :)

September 21, 2007 by stockit

Sorry for the long gaps between posts these days - been working on a new account system to replace our old Express and Standard accounts.

We hope to make this product free for all :D which is good news and exciting as it will have all the major Express features on a  revamped  interface with some extra tools to enhance the experiance.

So expect something new in the coming weeks…

Functions! Functions! Functions!

September 2, 2007 by stockit

:) just started using php functions - a bit overdue but finally we’re making use of it. The first page we implemented them was in our “News” section which from a user’s point-of-view you wont see much difference but it enabled us to add some new features - like a “news” search (which is quite accurate :D), company-specific news items and an in-built “in the news” part which displays stocks that were refered to in each news item ex: stock updates.

Going ahead with our plans we hope to make Stockit a fully “functional” ;) website for investors.

Introducing Viewer 2.0

August 27, 2007 by stockit

Developed first after viewing an app used by brokers to access real-time information we thought it would be a great idea to offer this kind of app to investors easily over the internet - no software required :D

Viewer 2.0 is updated using a relatively new technique called AJAX which is able to refresh new content without the need to refresh the window - making it a great tool for investors who dont want to miss a second or trading.

Updated Stockit Mobile

July 23, 2007 by stockit

Its been a while since our last post- but we’re back with an updated Stockit mobile - no major changes to the app but more with the introduction page now at http://www.stockit.biz/mobile.php which features a new cover and screenshots which were not available before - in our view - a better jump page to introduce Stockit Mobile to the majority of our users.

Backend Overhaul

June 29, 2007 by stockit

Currently doing over the backend of Stockit - making it easier to update and manage the  information on our website. So its a bit of this and that - working both the admin side and the user interface - but this way we work on the things that need our immediate attention so we keep the upgrade process alive :D

Know your Competitors

June 25, 2007 by stockit

Now on every “Snapshot” profile page you can view the top 5 competitors over market revenue which is a more accurate way to find out the true competitors rather than displaying them by sector/industry. Revenue segments are updated every year - from the Annual report along with the financials of the company.

Announcements!

June 21, 2007 by stockit

New AnnouncementThis icon is shown whenever a new corporate announcement is available and displayed  on the profile snapshot page when an announcement is still active (before its expiry date). Just another new feature to look out for :)

Update: Live day-chart

June 20, 2007 by stockit

Just released - hosted on every “Snapshot” company page - now the “1-day” chart displays an up-to-the-minute view of the market which is auto-updated every few seconds to keep it current :D Check out any company page (ex: SLTL) during trading hours between 9:30AM-2:30PM SL time to see it action - its amazing!!

Charts

June 20, 2007 by stockit

SLTL - Sri Lanka Telecom Ltd - 3 Monthsview SLTL example
A new mini chart was released for each “snapshot” profile page with the ability to view up-to-the-minute charts or go back 2 years. Its small, fast and a great addition for any page surfer looking for just a glimpse ;) We released the old “Chart” page on a request from a customer but that too will get a makeover along with all the other pages + some new ones :D
