Stox CommentaryLooks promising - Version: 1.3, 6/18/2009 02:47PM PST

Pros: Lots of useful features. Can set options separately for each stock. Can include multiple sources of information, etc.

Cons: Set up is not elegant. Had to figure out to use Get Info for each stock in order for charts to work. Would be nice to have a global setting that can be overridden for individual stocks. Also, while overlays are displayed on one chart alone for Charts and News, for Technical Charts, there are many overlay options but each in displayed in its own graph. Very messy.

This thing is just awful, it crashes and sometimes don't work, what a shame it could be a good app if they would put a little effort in it.

Stox ReviewMakes you appreciate Quicken - Version: 1.2, 9/19/2008 07:19PM PST

Hypothetically this supports Excel imports, but I was unable to edit the file to the point where Stox could import the number of shares. It was equally hard to enter transactions. Under 10.5.5, it kept trying to update the records without ever doing anything - perhaps some problem with the update.
