ValueGain's Start Page displays the results of current pre-computed fundamental scans in the work area:
The Start Page is divided into main areas:
Pre-computed fundamental scans are run on the HUBB server using criteria formulated by various fundamental analysts. The results of the scan are listed in the Symbols list.
Users can select individual stocks from the results to see how they were selected, and how other analysts rate that stock.
The pre-computed scans are performed on the HUBB server at the end of each market's trading session.
They are then available for download on a per-market basis.
From the drop-down list, select a different market in the Market Selector and click the Data-on-Demandbutton. All the available pre-computed scan results for all the experts in that market will be downloaded and will be ready to be displayed in the Symbols list.
The Fundamental Experts are divided into three groups and each individual expert in the group are listed.
The groups toggle between expanded and collapsed.
Expand the Expert's Group and select an individual expert. The results returned for the preconfigured scan using that Expert's criteria will be listed in the Symbols list.
The Symbols list contains the results of the pre-computed scan based on the selected Expert's criteria.
The list will contain all stocks that achieved the Expert's score of 75% or greater, or the top 10, some of which may have scores of less than 75%.
Select a symbol from the list and its fundamental data will be downloaded and its details displayed in the various graphs, tables and gauges.
The individual stock selected in the Symbol list will populate the various graphs, tables and gauges in the right side of the Start Page.
Even though the result was selected from a single Expert's pre-computed scan results list, users will be able to quickly review what the other Experts scored the stock in the Experts Analysis section.
The speedometer gauges show the average score for each group.
Select an Expert Group to display a list of the experts in that group. The scores of each individual Expert for the selected stock are displayed to the right of each Expert's name.
Click the information icon to display a biography of the expert.
Double left-mouse-click on the experts name to open the Single Stock Analysis (SSA) work page on that Experts Analysis tabbed page.
