Nice, but very very slow to update prices (updated review)

I expect prices to be 15-20 minutes behind but updated constantly. But here for many instruments the prices are not only behind but often the prices don’t change for several hours, even though in the market the same prices are continually changing. Refresh quotes IS enabled at 15 second intervals, and one can see this happening, but often none of the prices change for hours. Owing to this problem this nice app is of limited use. Update - 31-8-24. New version [1.8.3(189)] is flakey. I’ve just spent about hour preparing a watch-list when at the last moment ChartTreker crashed. When I started it again - my new watch-list was gone and my time wasted. I don’t think I will be renewing my subscription for this. I’m reducing the rating to one star.

Great for managing a portfolio

Been using the app for years and I think it’s the best for the ipad. I like that the trendlines transfer accurately to the different timeframes: hourly, daily, weekly etc. and also stay consistent as you expand & contract the amount of bars shown.

Trend lines

I have entered trend lines but lost my way - can’t find how to enter trend lines now

One problem

I really like this app and follow stocks with a 50 day and 200 day line. The problem: when switching from one stock to the next, the screen may be blank until you scroll up or down to get to the next stock’s price range. A minor bother.

Was only going to rate 4 stars...

Normally, I never leave reviews. However, I can’t help (after multiple provocations from the app) not to write this review!

But all joking aside, this is a pretty awesome app. I enjoy all of the customizations that makes this your app. I have used this app to pick better buying/selling points and stay away from the wolves in sheep’s clothing. I do not buy an investment without checking 3-4 apps and this is one of them.

Did encounter a glitch in the app and reached out for technical assistance. I was contacted timely (less than 12 hours) and was asked for additional information to assist in rooting out the bug. Another 12 hours later and I received a reply thanking me for the additional info and letting me know they are working on a fix. I liked the feedback knowing they cared to let me know and thanked me for reaching out. Hard to find in app development. A+

Charttrekker...

I’ve been using this app for a year or so, and follow dozens of stocks, mainly on the LSE. It’s pretty robust and tech charts are easily configured to your preferred settings.

The interface is very slick and it is easy to visualise up to about 5 or 6 tech indicators at a time with the an iPad, but it’s all a bit tight on a small screen phone.

I do occasionally see data anomalies on some charts, which I suspect is not the fault of the app itself, but more likely corrupt source data. I guess serious chartists would wish for a few more features, for example a logarithmic price scale option would be really useful.

In my opinion this is one of the best apps of its type that I have found so far. I certainly would recommend it.

Perfekte Chartingapp

Das ist die beste charting app für iPad/iPhone, die ich gefunden habe. Nutze beruflich Bloomberg und bin vom Funktionsumfang der App sehr angetan. Alle Daumen hoch! 😀

Don’t work anymore

In short like someone else who wrote that it don’t work on he’s iPad ultra, I have the same issue.

Real time problems

Been a good charting app for me. I pay for premium but the real time quotes seem to have stopped working.

It’s ok

It doesn’t have the charts for all symbols

MACD!!$$$$&

The MACD in this app is outstanding!!! My formula was correct and the candlesticks alone with the MACD lead me in the right way!!! Damñ today my portfolio doubled.

Great app

I love this app to visually know where my stocks are in relation to my cost basis. Gives a great visual of my gains/losses.

It should be used with another app to manage your portfolio. There is no app that both allows you to save your graph drawings and manage a portfolio....yet

Trader

This is the best charting app out there. I have used many, this one by faaar is more intuitive, accurate and easy to use.
With every update there has been better improvements to the app So well done to Mike and the team!!

Fibonacci retracement ratio error, v. 1.6.2 (161.3)

The original error was found in v1.6.1. The retracement (descending) should be calculated to 23.6% but is calculated to 25%! I stopped and uninstalled the app here. Feedback was immediately (4Mar18) sent to the developer. (Update) The Developer replied (5Mar18) that it'll corrected in the next update. Will update the rating when this is corrected.

Update: July 2018. I've updated the app and reinstalled it on my phone. Now I do not receive any charts for 2 well known financials, including Citigroup. I emailed the programmers, but have removed the app from my phone. I am the END USER, not the BETA tester. Do not install this app unless you want to be a BETA tester too.

Lost it's real-time quoting abilities

The app seems to have lost its ability to deliver real-time quotes a few weeks ago; now it only goes down to the 'day' time frame for a bar. As such, it does t distinguish itself from competitors enough and there's not much added value with the paid subscription.

No longer has intra-day charts

App features are great, but they have recently got rid of the capability to view intraday charts.

Very Good App

Very good app.

Lately I noticed that it is timing out though. I do have over 20 watch lists and 100 stocks saved so that may have something to do with it. Would be nice to get feedback on this.

Broken

This used to be an awesome app but now it doesn't work at all

Great App-Previous issues with Daily and Longer

I really like the app, the charting overlays, the variety of analysis. I have not liked when the daily and greater charts do not work which has been due to data format changes in the provider data.

Good Charting App (occasional flaws)

Pretty solid app if you want to do some basic chart study. Occasionally the chart on the daily is not available to view. Not sure why this happens but it's been the case that within a few days it is available again.
