$10 (or $40) isn't enough for me to take you serious. Would you make a move on $10 stock advice?

I would buy a $10 program that aided me in making stock picks if it were simply doing mathematical computations for me. This is more the equivalent of a program that computes PE and dividend ratios than one that says "Buy AAPL at $95". Except that dividend ratios can be computed trivially in your head, while equity against a range of holdings given certain chip stacks cannot.

Point taken. I didn't read the details. Sounds more like it truly is worth $0.

Yeah I'm not sure exactly what it does that some of the free ones don't.
