Interactive Graphing Tool & Tables
Written by John Packard
Our existing website is about as basic as one can get when it comes to housing our pricing and other data. The existing site has no ability to provide data in a graphic form and our tables are cumbersome and pretty low-tech. This is not the image we want to project as we build toward adding more data series. This is also not the image we want to project to those of you who need to interact with our data for your own reports and analysis.
We wrote about our new “Interactive Graphing Tool” in an earlier issue, and we hope you had time to watch the demo video of it. Now we hope that you will take the time to actually play around with it and use in to your benefit. We are including the video tutorial again in this article. It is also found on the “Interactive Graphing Tool” page: http:// steelmarketupdate.com/dynamic-pricing-graph/interactive-pricing-tool-members. As we said before, this graphing tool is our “baby”. We felt our customers deserved better access to information – especially pricing information. So, we created our interactive graphing tool which is used in our steel and scrap pricing area as well as other areas of the website. It will give you the enhanced ability to manipulate various data sets, including all of all of our flat rolled steel and ferrous scrap prices. On the new website, you will be able to interact with pricing data all from a single graph. It is as easy as clicking your mouse a few times.
