Splits and dividends should be factored into the price. I use the adjusted closing price http://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/adjusted_closing_price.a....

However in this case with Ebay it wasn't a stock split but rather a big chunk of Ebay (Paypal) split off into a separate independent company. I think what happened is when Ebay and Paypal separated Ebay share owners gained the equivalent Paypal shares. So this would throw off the numbers.

Yeah hindsight does really hurt here but not everybody did well. For example check out Zynga http://newinvestordaily.com/what-would-it-be-worth/r/23090

An interesting way to look at historical stock prices. Not really useful but interesting none the less.

A result of many weekends of development. NodeJS API, standard frontend with jQuery. Nginx reverse proxy.

Thanks! No problem glad to know other people are thinking around the same lines. I have lots of ideas (pun intended) for new features such as

Comments Better filters Automatic twitter feed.

Problem is I have so many projects on at the moment I just don't have the time.I'm actually selling the site on flippa as I just don't have the time to do the site justice.

Hi paul, dev here. Thanks so much. I do agree and I have had some problems with idea quality. I've found the site most useful for inspiration, for example taking multiple ideas and combining them to create something new.
