I have been using telechart for years. It appears that new development is not taking place in Telechart anylonger and all development resources are going into Stock Finder. One of the features i like best about Telechart is the ability to very easily keep a note journal on each stock i follow. The note taking ability in Telechart is very straightforward. It automatically sticks a chart in your note and all your notes about that stock are listed in a scrolling box which is easily accessible. So it provides a journal on each stock as you follow it and trade it through the years. On the other hand, if i understand Stock Finder correctly, you have to enter stock notes in a Blog. The blog is not linked to the symbol and chart that i am on. I can develop categories for each symbol but these are tremendously awkward. Am i doing something wrong? Is this correct that i cannot keep simple notes on each stock in Stock Finder like in Telechart? Are you planning on implementing that capability? It seems really crucial for me to move my work from Telechart to Stock Finder. It makes me very nervous to be working in a piece of software which is in maintenance mode. It is also awkward switching back and forth betweeen Telechart and Stock Finder. ARe there any plans on providing intra-day updating in STock Finder like is available in Telechart (gold)? Stock Finder is evolving into looking like a good piece of software. It has come a long ways from Version 1.0 which i considered very awkward. However, again, the ability to keep a journal attached to each security is really essential to being a good investor. It allows you to keep track of how you arrived at your decisions and improve over time.

StockFinder is different from TeleChart and is not intended as a replacement for TeleChart. There are some things that SF does better and there some things that TC does better. That said, it is possible to synchronize the blog symbol with StockFinder:
Blogging with StockFinder
It is also possible to use the ScratchPad to keep notes:

I do not know when or if StockFinder Gold might switch from daily data to twenty-minute delayed data. We do not normally discuss or comment on future features, services or products until they are actually released or officially announced.

Well, Scratchpad does not address what i was speaking about because it is just a place for general notes and not attached to any specific stocks. My understanding of synching with the Blogs is that it really does not bring up all the notes associated with a symbol that i jump to like occurs in Telechart. Telechart is simple and elegant in this respect. I am not sure what Telechart does better than Stock Finder other than these useability features which could be resolved. It does appear to me that no new development is taking place in Telechart and there is quite a bit of updating going on in Stock Finder. It does not take a rocket scientist to figure out where things are going.
