Spooz Moves to Larger Offices to Accommodate Anticipated Growth
Company Reports Increasing Interest in New Technology That Brings
Streaming Market Data Into Microsoft Excel CHICAGO, Nov. 2
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Spooz Inc. (Pink Sheets: SPZI) today
announced it has moved to a larger suite in the Chicago Board of
Trade Building to accommodate anticipated demand for its recently
launched market data analysis software, SpoozToolz(TM). The company
said it is in discussions with several vendors of electronic
trading platforms in the futures, options and stocks marketplace to
possibly integrate SpoozToolz into their offerings. "In light of
recent patent concerns among trading platform vendors, SpoozToolz
offers a new and unique alternative to graphical interface of live
streaming market data," said CEO Paul Strickland, referring to one
software provider's stated intent to enforce patents it believes
some vendors are infringing upon. "In addition to this development,
the recently announced integration of SpoozToolz into Peregrine
Financial Group's Best Direct trading platform and our own patent
applications also have generated interest in our product." Spooz is
now located in its larger facilities at 141 W. Jackson Boulevard
(Chicago Board of Trade) in Suite 1220, which will accommodate
additional IT and customer support personnel. The company has
applied for patents and copyrights on its proprietary processes and
software. "The advent of SpoozToolz, an add-in to the widely used
Microsoft Excel(R) spreadsheet, overcomes the severe limitations of
Microsoft's Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) feature for receiving live
data," Strickland said. "The SpoozToolz proprietary software
replaces DDE and further enables Excel to receive live streaming
market data and perform the multiple cell referencing necessary for
professional-quality market data analysis. "With several other
electronic trading platform companies, brokerage operations and
exchanges expressing interest in integrating SpoozToolz -- as an
enhancement to their products, as a value-add or as a standalone
system -- we expect integration with most major trading platforms
by summer 2005," Strickland said. About Spooz Spooz, Inc., a
publicly traded company based in Chicago, has developed, tested and
proven SpoozToolz in the commodities marketplace among professional
hedgers and traders throughout the U.S. SpoozToolz is the first
totally integrated program that taps the power of Microsoft Excel
by combining streaming quotes, charts, technical analysis, a
comprehensive historical database and trade execution into a simple
add-in that becomes part of the Excel tool bar. The program
provides trading and analysis screens and an electronic trading
gateway and promotes building highly customized templates that
track the real-time market value of users' portfolios, asset
inventories and production using data directly from their existing
accounting systems. More information is available at
