As the pages are too wide for my 17" laptop screen with 22 or even 20 point type, could you please add a "mobile" option? (Usually m. before the URL or /mobile after the .com, but before the rest of the page's URL). Then its "not as horizontal" to view.

What is the resolution of your screen? futures.io (formerly BMT) requires a 1280 px wide screen as minimum, I can't imagine any system within the last 10 years having less...

Ah, I see. (This one is probably 1024 x 768, though 17" wide) , Next time I'll use my other one with the 17.3" screen and probably higher resolution. Thanks.

What is the make/model of this system?

I checked our analytics, only 4% of traffic to the site uses less than 1280px resolution. Even 4% seems high, I am curious what you are using and how old it is. I know there are tablets with 1024px resolution (Apple) but a desktop/laptop??

Its an HP 8710, which has the 16 x 10 aspect ratio I prefer (for the extra height) to that of everything newer, which all have the 16 x 9 ratio designed to mirror the present "letterbox" TV screen format. I hadn't even known of the "m." (or /mobile) formatting until the owner of a (non-financial) website told me that m. was the way to somewhat "square up" the pages.

Hmm, well it is 7 or 8 years old but the specs claim it's 1920x1200 so I have no idea why yours is set to 1024x768.

16:10 vs 16:9 is not the issue here. There is no issue with that.

Sorry Mike, I meant 1680 x 1050. (The lower res. was something I saw running a fix in Safe Mode). Anyhow, on the site that suggested that I use their m. prefix version, which DID get rid of the excess width, I can assure you they didn't code that option for me; they did it for their many users who go on their site on handheld devices like (I guess) iPhones.

I'm sure you also have a lot of users who do, so you might consider that option (or /mobile if that does the same thing) basically for THEM, like the non-financial site I meant did. BTW, you're of course correct about 16 x 10 vs. 16 x 9 being irrelevant; the (IMO, mistakenly ditched) 16 x 10 basically means extra height more than extra width.

If you are using a mobile device, then when you visit nexusfi.com (formerly BMT) you will see a banner that says to install Tapatalk. It's the best way to view nexusfi.com (formerly BMT) on that device right now.

See nexusfi.com (formerly BMT) v5.0 for future plans:
