    hope it's useful...

    It's earnings season again, so, as a heads up, Clearstation shows the following:

    NWRE reporting on Thursday, July 13

    DXPE reporting on Wednesday, July 19

    BTUI reporting on Thursday, July 20

    ATHR reporting on Monday, July 24

    Small cap companies are notoriously unpredictable as to exact date so these dates may change. In addition this is in no way to be considered a full and complete list, only what I am currently aware of.

  5. Hi All, i'm new to this forum and a first time poster. I have followed this journal and the previous journal and the links provided and i'm slowly learning the ropes.

    I have a question that might have been answered somewhere in this vast journal resource, so please can anyone help me find out how do i create a "Universe" of stocks? I mean i have access to "Fidelity" research and "Wealth-Lab Pro" and can acess "MSN" and "Yahoo" screeners.

    Fidelity or MSN or Yahoo does not seem to provide fields for "EPS" rank in their screener tools.

    Can anyone please let me know what screen i need to use to get the "Universe" of stocks if i'm using the above tools.

    I know that stocktables.com does provide those fields, but at this time i'm not committed to pay for the service.

    Any help appreciated.

    Hey all,

    I have been working on a little Java program to automate some of the mechanical data collection stuff that I do every morning: run a dry-up scan, get LBDU volume (for alerts), and double-check earnings dates. Right now, it handles the logon to Wealth Lab and spits everything out to the console. Functional, but crude.

    If anyone is interested, I can try to buff it up and release it to the group. If you have any other suggestions for improvements like running the 'Bruno R' script, or if there's more data that you would like to get, or maybe you prefer some specific output format let me know and I can try to add it for the first release.

    Right now, I just don't know what's useful to the group. PM me with suggestions or if you'd like to volunteer to try it out for me, to double-check install instructions.

  8. I, for one, would absolutely love to have an application that quickly and easily allowed me to check earnings dates for the entire Final Universe with a simple mouse click. You have anything like that laying around the house? :D

    Your wish is my new feature request :)


    I'm not sure about the "quickly", though. Loading and parsing these pages takes a bit of time. It runs unattended, so even if it takes a while, you can do other things while it chugs in the background.


    For the first release, it'll all be command-line stuff. In a couple weeks I should have a copy of Excel so I may try porting this to VBA, but no promises. Hope that's okay with everyone.

    Hi foible,

    this sounds great... with the command line utility, we could just add a pipe command to the end so that the results are saved as a text file. So for me at least, no big deal about not having a GUI...

    cheers.
