It is interesting, but (at least to me) it does not seem to add any benefit. It basically is a list of stocks (I assume a watch list) sorted by % change which happens to be shown in colored bubbles. At first I thought that the size of the bubbles will play in help showing the data, allowing the trader to analyze the watch list or holdings, but it doesn't. Sorry man. It's interesting, but not beneficial to the average traders. Keep going at it though.
- antirez 16y agoSince I'm the one proposing this visualization, this is the reasoning: basically the idea is that you can check how the market is going in very little time. I guess the value is much more for casual users interested in the stock market then for traders that will study every single stock with greater detail. So indeed there is no real added value, but just a faster to read UI I hope. Btw I also concur that the developers should invest more time in providing also some added value that is not just an UI, but I guess this will hardly be a metter of a few days of efforts. Btw I must admit my "benchmark" was the iPhone built-in app that was what I used before. Thanks for the feedback!
- artix 16y agoThis is just the first release and all ideas are warmly welcomed. Our efforts will go in the direction of improving the user experience of Stock Bubbles for future releases. As antirez said, the goal of this app is not about giving more data than all the other apps. The basic idea of the app is to give users an original and less tedious interface to quickly monitor stock exchange fluctuations, but we'll work to improve other features too if we realize that they really add value to the app.
