(more…)I have two very exciting new features in SlopeCharts to tell you about.
The first was a relatively recent request by a user who wanted the Price Change Charts to have selectable earnings periods. Formerly, when you created one of these charts, it showed you every quarterly earning chart.
Now, you can pick and choose which ones you want to display or hide simply by clicking on any of the specific colors in the key.
