Trading Comps, a great mashup site of EditGrid for financial zealots to share financial spreadsheets, is launched today. Congratulations to the Dave Schmierer, the creator of Trading Comps.

Quoting Dave:

“TradingComps.com is a new website for user-contributed spreadsheets about finance and investing. Built with EditGrid’s best-in-class online spreadsheet software, this website was designed to help individuals produce, share, and consume financial data and analysis. Individual investors as well as financial professionals have few free resources outside of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) website to assist them in analyzing financial data. I think that giving people the ability to collaborate on financial analysis with others online has the potential to make it a lot easier and a lot more interesting for those who practice it. EditGrid is the key to making this collaboration possible by not only providing an easy way for individuals to upload and edit their spreadsheets, but also by providing a variety of ways for individuals to share their spreadsheets with others and giving the owner a number of different tools to control access. Trading Comps welcomes anyone to visit and contribute to building a better resource of financial data and analysis together!”

Trading Comps is a live demonstration of how to make good use of EditGrid’s User API and Partner API to serve your users. Now, Trading Comps users can contribute and share financial data and analysis through EditGrid spreadsheets. See the screenshots:
