Online Brokers: First Metro Securities' Platform update

source: www.firstmetrosec.com.ph

Let me first apologize. I mentioned months ago that I would be posting about some features of the two online brokers that I use but unfortunately I was only able to make the introduction and CitisecOnline's Stock Quote section. I got busy with work and markets has been so volatile thus the need to focus on analysis for better trades. Nonetheless First Metro Securities' note on their website caught my attention. So here is the first part of this First Metro Securities Platform update.

In case you haven't read my post about the online brokers I use and CitisecOnline's Stock Quote click the links below:

MY NEW SEGMENTS IN MY BLOG: THE ONLINE STOCKBROKERS THAT I USE

CITISECONLINE PLATFORM 1: STOCK QUOTE

Here is the screen shoots of First Metro Sec's update on their Quotes tab

In the Main Quote Sub-tab you have the options to chose to see Multiple Quote to see quotes for various stocks you are interested in and with just one click on BUY or SELL you will be directed to the New Order Section in the TRADING TAB

The BID AND ASK section gives information about the volume and price for bid and ask. You have the option to view stocks by index category.

HIGH-LOW-LAST section is nearly the same as BID  AND ASK showing information about the open, high, low, close information of the stock.

In the STOCK INFO section it gives a particular information about a stock. See screen shots below. 

Note: Other features will be in the Part 2 of this post.

In general the update of the QUOTES section of First Metro Sec is an enhanced version and also other features from the ANALYTICS section is included.

As promised I am making a post regarding the features and navigation of the Citiseconline web page.

First we will try to tackle the quote tab of the Citiseconline page specially about the Stock Quote function.

The very first information you will get is seen in the color of the name of the company. When it is yellowish just like CHIB(ChinaBank) it indicates that the stock has no movement comparing today's last traded price form yesterday's. A green means its higher than yesterday while a red mean its lower than yesterday.

If you are already familiar with the BID and ASK columns you might notice the additional numbers beside each Bid or Ask data. Those are the number of bidders or sellers during the trade or those that are on queue. The Last 5 Trades are records of the transactions that affected the said particular stock for this matter CHIB was only traded 3 times. The number in the BUYER and SELLER COLUMN are assigned number for stockbrokers participating in the PSE. You can access that list here.

And lastly the vertical box on the side indicates all the information one needs when making a decision to buy or sell. It contains the price information during the trading hours like the OPEN, HIGH, LOW, CLOSE, and PREVIOUS. 

Also basic information about the stock also are in this box
