The first step is to select a data set, eg a sector. Choose 'Sector Averages' to see all sectors plotted against one another.
Then select the data plot categories that you want to use (e.g. Share Performance, Growth Ratios, Director Deals, etc).
Once that is selected you can choose from the specific data point that you want to see in the Sector Strips for each plot (e.g. if you have already selected Growth Ratios as your data type you can now choose from EPS Growth, Dividend Growth, Turnover Growth, etc).
Do the same for the Colour of the strips.
Finally, choose whether to sort the results by ticker, colour or size value.
The resulting Sector Strip will show the information based on the options you selected in the control panel.
A colour key is shown along the top of the Sector Strip. The colours range from a deep red through to a deep blue. The deeper the blue, the better the data point. The deeper the red, the worse the data point.
In parallel, the larger the strip, the better the data point. The smaller the strip, the worse the data point.
The company’s ticker, which is found within each strip, links you to the company research page. Also, if you hold your mouse over a ticker without clicking, the company name and data values will be displayed.
