Brief product description:

SmartBroker identifies stock opportunities, by defining market trends, and announcing which stocks are about to fall, and which are about to rise BEFORE they move. Manages Quote Downloading, Price & Volume Trend Analysis, Automatic News Downloading, Market Phase Identifier, Buy & Sell Recommendations, and Forecast Report Cards on itself. Smartbroker can track and report on over 30,000 stocks, which is currently more than is reported. You will need a flat-rate account with Prophet Financial Systems, Inc. (650-322-4183) which provides the data file and only charges $19.95/month (unlimited access). Users can download this file with any ftp capable browser (Netscape, AOL, MicroSoft Exchange, etc...). Or, you can use practically any exported ascii text quote file from other software packages (see list of data sources from SmartBroker home web-page: http://members.aol.com/CwooL97945/SB.htm ).
