This is the package I'm considering as I'm told it can chart UK Sectors. I assume from your question that market breadth indicators are not included in SharePad's default library, do you know if it's possible to configure new indicators?
Other systems I've seen are ShareScope and Updata, both look very comprehensive but are more than I want to spend. Another reason to stay with browser based systems is that I use Linux machines and installation software usually requires Windows or Mac environments.
I like the idea of developing my own charts like pcabc does, but I'd still need to source the feeds and I'm not sure I could commit the time and dedication to make it worthwhile.
Be warned, I've probably spent 100's of hours doing it. But then it is interesting to me. From the time spent I would probably have made more money getting a paper round...
I use eodhistoricaldata.com for end of day data. But I calculate the breadth myself. The challenge will be seeing if you can find a data source for the UK breadth data, even better if it is in a charting package. Realistically if you are not into coding don't even think about going down the route I went down.
Thanks for the data link, have you tried http://www.eoddata.com/products/historicaldata.aspx? May I ask what charting software you're using?
