StockEagle Stock Database         prev.jpg (821 bytes)   next.jpg (821 bytes)

For many studies StockEagle needs some background information about each stock.
This information is stored in the main database (MAIN.DAT) and
has to be updated on a daily basis.

We suggest that you let StockEagle complete the daily close process for approx. 10 minutes;
which starts automatically anytime between 4:16PM and 9:00AM (New York Time).
Simply keep the StockEagle View open during that time period and StockEagle will start the automatic
day close process whenever the minute changes.

If this update is missed even by one day StockEagle will have inaccurate data and
some Studies will yield possibly wrong results. To correct this situation
either download the current/new database from the StockEagle web site(included in the regular package)
or click the "Bring Database up-to-date" button and let is run for a few hours during off market time!
Be carefull not to exceed your datafeed bandwidth - check with your broker!

The cutoff price in StockEagle is $5 under which the stock will not be available or used in any study.
Currently there are approx. 6000 stocks actively traded and stored in the StockEagle database.
We recomend to start StockEagle at least 15 minutes before the market opens (9:15 NY Time)
to allow StockEagle to prepare the new trading day automatically (Reset accumulative values etc.)
or to complete the day close from the previous day!
