Next month will mark the first year of my Telechart experience. I must say I've been very happy with Telechart. Thanks for the great product.
Recently while I was examing the EPS data for the stocks on my watchlist, I found there are data I have serious doubt. I used the built in EPS percentage change for the latest quarter, and three previous quarters. One example is there are about 6 stocks in 38 stocks I selected, all have -100% EPS change for all the previous quarters and 75% for the latest quarter. 5 Stocks in the list have -75% for all the prvious quarters and 38% for the latest quarter. The stocks that have exact same EPS data are stocks from different industries. It seems to me such data is highly impossible. I started to doubt about the accuracy of the data in Telechart, after I checked other sources which showed difference of the EPS for those stocks.
I'd really like to have some more space on the right side of the Telechart for analysis purpose. One month space will be enough. I have voiced this before. Some subscribers also mentioned this before.
Another improvement I would like will be Printing. I hope Telechart will use standard Windows printing instead, at least charts can be rotated in landscape format and rescaled.
Regards.

About the space on the right, I think two weeks (10 days) should be sufficient.

The data department did find some issues with the tickers and will have it corrected in this week's fundamental update (Saturday).

I too find a number of data errors or anomalies. Most recent is Wro, (WIT). TC200 chart shows a cap value of $14B where in S&P cap value is $7B. Earnings show $5B, S&P shows $1.8B, PE ratio shows 2.9x while in s&p it is 36.3. This is the Oct 20, 2005 update. I don't know how to get these things fixed having failed several times on other anomolies. So, beware.
For most stocks, the values are close to the s&p numbers. So, perhaps, someone mistyped some values, but one needs to use the TC2000 data sheets with great care by checking other sources.

Two weeks after the update now, I still have doubts about the data accuracy. Some of the tickers I provided above now don't have EPS data. They are simply blank. There are also numerous tickers that also have blank EPS data. At least most of the tickers here are not IPOs. So the EPS data should be there. Need help here.
Thanks.
