Description
Let's say you want to compare the performance of one company against the performance of several dozen companies? You don't want to see a lot of "noise". You want to see actual winners and losers.
Wait, wait there's more. Let's also say that you want the ability to compare performance to be really very easy.
There's two parts on the setup:
- The first is setting up the Lens so that it shows the percent change since a particular date.
- The second part is using Quantum4D's ability to overlay objects over one another you can set up a screen that you can update in real-time using drag and drop or copy and paste to display the stock you want to highlight.
With this setup, in a few seconds you can identify which symbols have performed better or worse than the average. For any start date you pick there are always winners and losers at the closing date.
The ability to track the performance of dozens of companies on the same screen is a real feature of using Quantu4D. We'd like to hear how you would like to see this ability applied to your needs.

Space Settings
Space = Comprised of two separate Objects overlaid so that they are aligned exactly one above the other. The Space in the background contains the thirty symbols all in gray. The Space in the foreground contains the colored symbols.
Action = Highlighting and de-highlighting symbols is accomplished by dragging and dropping symbols from one space to the other.
Colors = Set individual colors for each object you want to keep in the foreground space – such as the DJI symbol. Set a default color for the new symbols you drop into the foreground space.
