Stock Map: Stocks Market vs Stock Map Pro Usage & Stats

Stock market map (a.k.a. stock market heat map or stock market tree map) is a visual representation of stock market data. The size of the block in the map represents the market share of a component within its higher-level component in the hierarchy. The color of a component represents price change (gain or loss) percentage. A component on the map can be the end node (i.e., an individual stock), an industry group of multiple stocks, a market sector of multiple industries, or the entire market that the specific map is tracking. Stock Market Map Professional Edition (Stock Map Pro) contains six stock market heat maps in one app. It features the Total Market map, S&P 500 two-level map, S&P 500 flat map, Dow Jones 30 Industrial map, QQQ two-level map and QQQ flat map. The Total Market map tracks more than 600 stocks traded on the US stock exchanges from major US companies and ADRs with the largest market capitalizations. The S&P 500 maps, DJ30 map and QQQ maps track the S&P 500 stocks, Dow Jones 30 Industrial stocks and Invesco QQQ ETF stocks respectively. The stocks on a map are grouped in hierarchies. A market contains multiple sectors. A sector contains multiple industries. An industry contains multiple stocks. For maps with two levels, the first (root) level shows all the sectors and industries under each sector. The second level shows a specific sector and all the industries and stock under the sector. You need to navigate between the two levels to see all the stocks. For maps with one level (i.e., a “flat” map), all stocks are shown together. The Total Market map, the S&P 500 map and the QQQ map have two levels. The first (root) level contains all the sectors and industries tracked by the markets. The second level contains a single sector and stocks under the sector. The DJ 30 map, S&P flat map and QQQ flat map have only one level. Market data come from real-time quotes when market is open and show End-of-Date data after market close (4pm Eastern Time) and then finalized at around 8:05 pm when after hour trading ends. Data on the maps got refreshed automatically when the stock markets are opened. For each component (stock, industry index, sector index or the entire market) there is the latest price, price gain percentage, Open, high, low prices, volume, average volume and volume strength (intraday data are normalized to the portion of elapsed time within the session) and the price strength, which is the ranking of the price gain percentage of a component in comparison to all other components.
