New Price Charts on StockCentral
StockCentral has added a new feature: historical stock price charts with a variety of technical indicators. Available in the Data tab of the site, the Charts tool displays a variety of indicators along with the price history of any equity. We have price data going back to 2000, for pre-set and customizable periods ranging from 1, 3 or 6 months to 1, 3 or 5 years, or all the data going back to 2000. You can quickly select a period by using the buttons at the top. We support several types of charts: line, open-high-low-close (OHLC) and candlestick charts.
We also provide customizable overlays, including simple moving averages, exponential moving averages, Bollinger bands, RSI and MACD. You can select the periods and deviations you wish to use for these various indicators. We have plans to add stock splits and dividends to the charts as well. We are also working on some educational programming to help StockCentral subscribers use the new charts, and we we are collecting feedback for further enhancements. If you have any suggestions, please let us know.
Along with the historical company data reports, stock screener, sector and industry average browser, financial ratio analyer, research links, Roster of Quality Companies, portfolio manager and Take Stock fundamental analysis tool, we believe that the stock charts application adds even more value to the low cost of an annual StockCentral subscription.

IAS Named to 2013 Hulbert Honor Roll for Fourth Consecutive Year
For the fourth year in a row, the Investor Advisory Service has been named to the Hulbert Financial Digest's prestigious Investment Newsletter Honor Roll.
The Newsletter Honor Roll acknowledges those newsletters that exhibit above-average performance in both up and down markets. The 2013 Investment Newsletter Honor Roll includes 14 letters that have exceeded the market since March 31, 2000, thus identifying newsletters that display a high level of consistency during all phases of the stock market's cycles.
Hulbert began tracking the Investor Advisory Service's performance in the mid-1990s, so the IAS was first eligible for inclusion on its Honor Roll in 2010. That year also marked the Investor Advisory Service's first year on the Newsletter Honor Roll, and the IAS has been received the honor every year since then as well, giving it a perfect four-for-four record.
Since March 31, 2000, the Investor Advisory Service's stock picks have earned an exceptional annualized 8.9% gain through November 30, 2012, quadrupling the mere 1.9% annual return of the Wilshire 5000 Total Stock Market Index during the same period.
According to Mark Hulbert, editor of the Hulbert Financial Digest, just 17% of all HFD-monitored newsletters made it onto the Honor Roll, suggesting that making it onto the Honor Roll "really means something."
When it comes to providing greater returns than the market during both bull and bear cycles, few newsletters can match the Investor Advisory Service record.
