I use MarketWatch every day that the markets are open. It has more information than I could ever use, but it is there if you need to find it. The lay out is pretty good as far as ease of navigating. It reads kind of like a news paper, with current news and market conditions always available. All in all, I like this site except for one feature. There is a row of trading site advertisements across the main page. When you move your cursor over them... and you don't even have to stop on them... those ads immediately drop down to capture your screen, which then moves what you are navigating down to look at, further down off your screen. Then when you move off the ads, they pull back up which then moves what you were looking for off your screen once again. I find this "in your face" advertising method very annoying and counter productive for the site user. If I want to see what any of those trading sites have to offer, all I need do is click on them. I don't need them hijacking my screen. Other than that, MarketWatch is a very good site.
I paid for a subscription which is 3.99 dollars each month for 1 year then 19.99 dollars it deducted from my account and never received the subscription + i sent them and email and called them but no use they kept telling me we dont have the subscription details.
When it comes to financial news, one article says te market is going up and then the very next minute it says the market is going down. I go to this site to get info on what I should not be doing. If they say buy I usually wait for the stock to pullback or avoid it. In terms of the market, they have been wrong but they are not as bad as the street, which is full of ads and its impossible to read an article without going nuts
Their website is very informative with useful graphs and the latest news about the market.
However, when I tried to contact them about my queries; they haven't responded yet. I hope they can be improve this in the future.
