How do I improve my results with Topic Filters?

Topic filters keep you in control of the type of news you receive. Whether it is in your daily email alerts or while logged in to FullCircl, you will get the articles that are most relevant to you on the companies that you’re following.

To apply topic filters:

• Click on one of your watchlists and go to their News tab.
• At the top of the newsfeed, click on the "Watchlist Filters" section, then click the "Edit Filters" button.



• This will open a pop-up box containing all of the topic filters available. Tick the boxes next to the topics you are interested in. You can also click on the arrow next to each topic to drill down to more specific subtopics.



The topic filters that you have in each watchlist will affect all the companies within that watchlist. If you wanted really specific filters for one particular company, move that company to its own watchlist and apply the filters there. This will allow you to receive filtered news for that company while ensuring that you do not miss relevant news for the rest.

If you find you’re receiving too many alerts each day, you may wish to tighten your filters to concentrate on what matters most to you. The opposite applies if you’re not getting enough alerts – simply loosen the topic filters or remove them altogether. This is often the best idea for companies that are small and don’t regularly appear in the news.

While viewing a company or watchlist's newsfeed, clicking on the "Topic Cloud" section will bring up a list of topics which the articles in that newsfeed have matched. The larger, bolder text on certain topics indicates that this topic has been matched more frequently than others.
