Version 5.3.4
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

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.

review the trading activity in each list directly from GemPro, as
well as from your charting software.

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
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.
The icon
to launch the utility is automatically placed in the Window’s System
Tray (the area next to the time usually located in the bottom right
of your screen).
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.
