Type Search for Screener Results

Another one from Douglas Goodman - 1 seat Pro

"Hi Kyle,

As I keep rolling Ycharts out and figuring out how to use it best, I “think” I have found a shortfall that would be great if your developers could address. Here’s the issue:

So I have created and saved an Equity Screen using metrics and weights that I like so far. The weighting gives me a score model that ranks the stocks in the universe. This list is then shown in the screen on pages that include approx. 50 per page. At the bottom of that page users can click “Next” to go to the next page.

Here’s the shortfall: There is no way to quickly search a symbol/company to see it’s rank within my screen. One of the best things about the CPMS product is that when I want to see how a company ranks in my equity screen, I merely type in the symbol and it takes me right to that stock where it ranks in my screen. Ycharts does not do that…I have to scroll page after page looking very closely to find the company in question. Fixing this functionality would make the world of difference. Without it, a saved equity screen function is of little use. At the very least, at the bottom where you click next to go to the following page, it should be replaced with the letters of the alphabet so that the user can quickly get to the part of the alphabet where the respective symbols resides (you have this feature in your financial glossary.

Hope you guys don’t mind the feedback. Thanks"
