Our tablet compatibility enables you to take Alpha to your clients for dynamic and interactive illustrations of investment options and portfolio performance.
WHAT'S DRIVING THE PRICE ACTION IN YOUR WATCHLIST?
Event flags appear next to a stock to tell you about important news. This might be breaking news, the stock going ex-dividend, dividend payments, reporting dates, bids, suspensions or triggered alarms. Flags can be configured to show forthcoming events as well. Flags will appear wherever you are looking at a stock - in a list, a portfolio or watchlist, on a chart or on the Level 2 screen.
Alpha's flags highlight results dates, news stories and ex-dividends to give you a fast heads-up on why an investment may have risen or fallen. Simply move your cursor over the flag to reveal more detail.
Here is an example of an expanded Result and Acquisition flag:
FAST SEARCH
Wherever you are in Alpha, searching for an instrument couldn't be easier. Just start typing the name or code on your keyboard and Alpha will immediately initiate a search to display what you are looking for with just one click.
SWITCH BETWEEN LAYOUTS INSTANTLY
Alpha comes equipped with a range of default layouts designed for different tasks (e.g. equity or fund analysis, watchlist management, news filtering) and based on our 15-year experience of working with clients. Each layout can be customised to what you want, to suit your requirements. A toolbar with buttons for each of your layouts enables you to switch between them quickly with a single click of the mouse.
