You may have noticed a few changes to the site with a new template and a new indices "gadget" on the right hand side of the page.
Hopefully, the site is still readable for everyone but I thought that the gadget might need a little explanation:
The tabs:
- UK for the FTSE 100; 250; All share; Small cap; and AIM
- World for the Dow; Nasdaq; Dax; and Nikkei
- Forex for £/$; Euro/ £; Euro/$; $/Yen; AuD/$
Selecting an index by clicking on the numbers (not the index name) brings the relevant chart up (if available).
The charts themselves are live and moving the cursor over the plotted data will display the value at that point.
There are also coloured tags showing:
- green - period high
- grey - period starting point
- blue - current value
- red - period low
In the top right hand corner, the chart period can also be changed between: 1 day; 1 month; 6 months; and 1 year, with the same functionality available.
Finally, clicking on one of the index names will bring up a new page on the Markets section of The Telegraph website where the same indices are shown but where there is functionality to view the constituents of the UK indexes with various functionality such as:
- Summary - daily price movements
- Prices - the price change over various periods up to 6 months
- Trade data - current bid offer spreads
- Fundamentals - P/E; yields etc
- Financials - Reported profits etc
- Broker Recs - Consensus of broker recommendations
- Directors Deals - value of directors deals in various periods up to 12 months (assume that the value is net?)
- Broker views - current recommendations
There are also some other toys along the tabs such as stock screeners; heat maps etc
Might be useful as a quick reference point.
