Screen Capture Software

If you're a trader you often need to capture what a chart looks like and then be able to post it to a forum such as this one or email to a friend or colleague to share views and opinions.

What screen capture software do you use and recommend. I decided to start this topic after seen a posting from inventor here: Day Trading Journal where he mentioned that he uses a product called NWSnap.

A little bit of investigation lead me to this web site where you can download this free utility: MWSnap
(I have not downloaded or used this and am just going by inventor's recommendation. If you have a recommendation for any Screen Capture Software then please post the name and/or link as a reply to this topic.

Thanks!!

I have to say that I love Jing too. Before I found Jing though I found a free screenshot software that was brain dead simple to use.

Here's the site that I found it on:

He's still offering it for free.

Thanks bakrob99 - always on the lookout for image capture software that might make life easier.

Nice, thanks.!

Just pay for snagit. It's the best out there.

Not to reply to an old thread, but this is relevant and I've been a user of this since the early days:

...the interface is not as pretty as SnagIt, but it gets the job done and can be used to capture the screen for a variety of other purposes (also if you're playing a game on another screen while the market is slow)!

I like 'Screenshot Captor ' for getting trading charts.

It is free and done by a volunteer group , so you can
donate.

It's Called: SCREENSHOT CAPTOR

Hope this helps.

I use PicPick.Is free for non commercial users and included editor.

I have been using Full Shot screen capture software for about 5 years. It's a one step system and has a 30 day free trial. www.inbit.com is where you can go to find out all the particulars. You can capture the whole screen or just a small portion. Tech support is awesome.

Snagit is the best, bar none!

I agree Snagit from TechSmith Corp. is the best it will cost you only $30 if you say you're a student otherwise is $50

I found most of the "free" stuff comes with too many advertising and might harm your computer

i use lightshot screenshot. Its very good and very adaptable
