This is a plug-in tool to Excel that helps download bulk quote data so that further technical analyses could be applied.
BulkQuotesXL Pro is an add-in for Microsoft Excel 2010 that helps you download free quotes directly into your worksheets. This tool then automatically applies technical analysis functions to the downloaded data. There are several such free quote data sources available such as Yahoo! Finance, Google Finance, PiFin and CBOE, etc. Yahoo! Finance supplies several types of data that include historical prices, dividends and options prices. Google finance provides historical stock quotes data on a daily and weekly basis. PiFin supplies free historical end-of-day data for currency FX rates, financial futures, commodity futures, and indices from PiFin. CBOE supplies free 15-minutes delayed prices for almost all US options. The application is capable of handling downloads from tens or even hundreds of tickers simultaneously.
You can then immediately apply technical analysis to the downloaded data. It is also possible to apply your own macros to all your tickers. Several graphic aids can be generated that include bar, candlestick, or line charts instantly from the downloaded data. Data can be exported in well known formats such as ASCII, MetaStock and others. You can display the downloaded data in side-by-side in rows or columns, or choose another display format from the pre-defined templates. It comes with a collection of 81 technical analysis functions, indicators, and alerts which can be easily used in the creation of your particular trading systems. This is a very good product.
