    Media Review
    "StockMaster is ideal for both novice and experienced investors who require a package to keep track of their stock market investments." "... Seldom does a software package completely outclass competitors, offering users a clearly superior product in terms of sophistication, simplicity and obvious attention to details."

    "StockMaster is specifically designed for monitoring a share portfolio and has the added advantage of providing analytical tools as well as keeping the records you need."

    "...... there is an on-line help facility, which makes the $199 price tag good value if you are active enough in the share market to get full value from the program."

    User Review

    "On the first of July I used Stockmaster to produce my end of year trading results for my accountant. A process that normally took a day of my time (at least) was completed in 30 minutes. The reporting capabilities of Stockmaster are awesome and detailed. I saved more than the cost of the program and run time for 6 months in lower accounting fees alone. I recommend Stockmaster to the serious investor who requires instant portfolio analyisis."

    "In 2005, I made the decision to take advantage of the new Superchoices legislation and salary sacrifice my super contributions into my own self-managed super fund. In doing so, I needed to develop comprehensive share trading strategies, which were cost effective to administer.

    The Australian Tax Office requires an annual audit of self-managed super funds. I needed to have a documented share trading strategy, detailed minutes on all share-trading activities, and comprehensive accounting records for the self-managed super fund. Non-compliance is very expensive.I did not want to go there!

    I had two options for administering my self-managed super fund. I could have employed an accountant to do daily administration of the fund or I could manage the daily administration myself, and have the accountant just do the end of year stuff. With charge-out rates for accountants set at $350 per hour and bookkeepers rates set at $150 per hour, it was an easy decision to make. I chose to administer the fund myself!

    When I first started managing my share portfolio, I used an Excel based portfolio manager. However, I soon found that Excel portfolio mangers do not allow me to print, view and export detailed reports, and so I made the decision to purchase Stockmaster.

    When I use Stockmaster, each trade is stored in a specially designed portfolio and becomes a unique record. This allows me to relate each trade to a specific member, specific date, and security code. After I input my trades, I have the power to create dynamic reports based on security code, date, or strategy.

    Stockmaster allows me to keep an accurate trading journal -- Trading journals allow me to gain valuable insight into my trading methods and enable me to have a systematic review process, to ensure I am consistently evolving as a trader.

    Stockmaster has a specially designed back end database. This gives me an unlimited number of transactions per portfolio. It enables me to build a real time trading history of my performance. Stockmaster gives me an edge to find errors in my trading before they become detrimental to my account.
    Excel portfolio managers do not have a database structure -- Making it difficult for me to manage more than one year of trading history."
