More new features added

The web site pages that augment this blog are in pretty decent shape now and I have made some improvements to the blog itself.

The screenshots of the TradeRadar application are in place with explanations of what each screen does.

I have deployed the Tracking page where I keep the status of past TradeRadar picks updated. You will see a ticker with the latest prices and a table describing the current situation. Here is where I will admit to failures and revel in successes.

For those of you who have downloaded the TradeRadar application, I intend to update the Help file soon and will be posting it on the Download page. It should be ready within the next week.

I have also added some cool new tools to this blog. Those of you who have visited lately may have noticed the Trade Radar Stock Consultant form in the left sidebar. The Stock Consultant site provides automated technical analysis of stocks and options including charts, timing indicators, support and resistance, etc.

I have joined an excellent blog directory called Tailrank. I have created a custom Tailrank search that I am hosting on this blog that retrieves posts from financial blogs. An interesting feature is that Tailrank also displays who is linking to a particular post so you can follow the conversation from blog to blog.

Finally, I have also added a form from AmericanBulls.com, a site I discovered while researching mashups. They use candlestick analysis to generate automated buy/sell/wait signals for short term trading. The explanations provided are quite detailed and they are honest enough to post how their calls have worked out over the past two years.

Business Intelligence consolidation - who's next?

We have seen a consolidation wave begin in the Business Intelligence space. IBM just bought Cognos and Oracle recently bought Hyperion. SAP just announced they are buying Business Objects after barely having time to digest their recent acquisition of Pilot Software. There are three major database vendors at this time: IBM with their DB2 product, Oracle with their flagship Oracle database and Microsoft with their SQL Server database. IBM and Oracle now have premier, industrial-strength data analysis and reporting products in their product portfolios that complement their core database products. Microsoft has what, Excel? Actually, Microsoft, like IBM and Oracle, has a suite of proprietary tools that do happen to integrate very well with Excel and SQL Server. Still, IT departments are not deploying the Microsoft tools for heavy-duty corporate use. Microsoft is unique among the big three by their lack of a premier reporting product. It seems safe to assume that Microsoft will be the next...
