TrendSpider Software Update: Earnings, Splits, and Dividend Dates Added
Hello everyone! Today we are excited to add Earnings, Splits, and Dividend dates to the “Events” tab in TrendSpider. Searching for this data can be a time-consuming process, but now it can be added directly to your chart at all times with a few simple clicks! More details about this new addition below, enjoy.
Earnings, Splits, and Dividends Dates Added
If you are at all like me, you may have found yourself bidding on a stock that has a beautiful technical setup, without realizing an earnings release is the next day or the next week. Earnings, Dividends, and Splits can all wreak havoc on technical setups while price action temporarily takes a back seat to newly released fundamental information. It is important to stay informed of these dates to ensure you have the full story on the asset you are looking to trade.
To access these new additions, navigate to the events tab at the top of your screen. Selecting this button will populate a dropdown window with a checkbox for each available option.
On chart event display options:
- Analyst Estimates (US stocks)
- Dividends (US stocks)
- Earnings (US stocks)
- Splits (US stocks & ETFs)
