Can anyone tell me where to download the non web-based version of v12?  I found a link in another thred pointing to a FAQ page, but that page no longer seems to have a download link to version 12.  I found this link (http://www.tc2000.com/version-12-5), but this is for the web-based version.  And since running trading software inside a browser process is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard of, I would like to know if there is still a desktop version available somewhere? Thank you!

Hello,

I'm noticing that some of the MorningStar fundamentals sometimes show wacky values.  Either I'm not understanding how they are calculated, or there is something wrong with the data.  As an example, if you look at ticker GRBK (Green Brick Partners), revenue change last qtr shows over 600,000 percent for most recent reported quarter.  I'm assuming it is comparing Dec 2015 with Dec 2016, in which case (according to google finance) the values should be approx. 246M against 85.5M, or about 288%.  Pretty high, but a few orders of magnitude off from the 600,000% reported by TC.  What is going on with these numbers?

I found some additional information which maps the Industries to the broader sectors.  See the spreadhseet download at the bottom of this page:

For anyone interested, I found a bit more information.  According to this source, it seems as though the naming system used by tc2000 (as well as freestockcharts.com) corresponds to the old legacy morningstar classification system, with some groups moved around in order to get past the 9 sub industry groups per industry limitation.  This explains a lot - including why some of the names do not match the classifications found at other sources.  hopefully this information is of use to someone else.

Hello,

I'm trying to figure out where Worden gets their data with respect to the classification of stocks to Industry and Sub Industry groups.  I would like a complete list of all sectors, industries, and sub industries as worden maps them out, but I can't find a matching list anywhere.

The names of Industries and Sub Industries, as well as where a given stock falls, do not conform to any of the following lists, as far as I can tell:

The Morningstar Global Industry Classification Standard (http://www.morningstarcommodity.com/get-support/data-sources/core-vendors/global-industry-classification-standard-gics)

Yahoo Industry List (this one comes close - but there ae no subindustries (http://biz.yahoo.com/p/sum_conameu.html)

Hoovers Industry Classification (http://www.hoovers.com/industry-analysis/industry-directory.html)

The ICB Industry Classification Benchmark (http://www.icbenchmark.com/Site/ICB_Structure)

For example, few (if any) of the above lists have an Industry called "Banking".  Nor do they classify Banks in to sub-industries such as "Money Center Banks", "Regional - Midwest Banks", "Regional - Pacific Banks", etc.  This is just one example, but it applies broadly across most if not all industry groups.  I have also found cases where a particular 'Industry" within TC2000 is actually a 'Sub Industry' or 'Industry Group' according to other sources.

I'm really having a hard time integrating my analysis between TC2000 and other tools, because whenever I get a ticker list from another source and try to continue my analysis from within TC2000, I need to re-classify all of the stocks in to TC2000's industry groups, and often the matching is arbitrary because the mappings are not 1 to 1.  Can anyone please tell me how TC2000 classifies stocks, and how each Industries map to the broad sectors?

Help!

Hi Bruce,

Is there any chance this feature may be added?  It would be extremely useful.
