Why do you uses ETF ? In PRT you can work directly on the original Stoxx Europe 600 sector indices.
Also note: the Stoxx Europe 600 Sectors are in fact equivalent of the ICB-"Supersector" level (19 supersectors). In ProRealTime you can also find the Stoxx Europe TM indices for the ICB-Sectors (41 Sectors IIRC), which gives you a better insight.
Here are the codes if you want to have a look in PRT (in each line, the first number is the ICB-sectorization, the last code is the mnemo of the corresponding Stoxx Europe TM indice):

Do you know where one can get the FTSE sub-sector charts?
For example Mining is good but the five sub-sectors (Coal, Diamonds & Gemstones, General Mining, Gold Mining, Platinum & Precious Metals) would be better.
RE: UK Stocks - Watchlist and Discussion - kero - 2016-08-01
Nope, sorry. But I must say, I never searched, because I don't trade on UK market.
Maybee you can explore if the Stoxx Europe TM indices are good enough for you. I have the same problem on French market, for which I cannot find something really good for the sectors (there are some but not others, for some of them I can't find quotes for the last months...).
That's why I use Stoxx Europe series (which include France, UK...).It is true that they are broader, but that can also be an advantage. On the French sector indices, for example, I noticed that there is a such limited number of stocks, that just some (or just one) big stocks are overweighted in the indice and can "mask" the general move. On the other hand, Europe can be seen as a broad market - not so differently from what we have for United States. Just watch at banks, insurance, oil&gas stocks...
For now, I find that using Stoxx indices gives me quite good results.

Thanks for the list. I don't use prorealtime. I prefer using my own database, but I can only put a sample of stocks in it. I may look at stockcharts again or perhaps prorealtime. I think with the latter I had some java issue causing a problem.

You have your own database ? I'd be curious to know what kind of software you use.
For Java, are you using Linux ? In this case, PRT only works fine with Oracle's native version of Java.

A few Stage 2A breakout attempts - HUR.L, FXPO.L, MTFB.L

I produced a database to record my stock positions as a spreadsheet seemed a little clumsy. Then I thought it would be useful for it to fetch the prices automatically using python. Then, as I had the data and was just reading stage analysis it seemed logical to add charts. Then I added some screening functions. It all sort of snowballed. It suits my mindset and it means I've had to learn the market breadth stuff etc. However, it is not for everyone and has consumed a lot of time.

I seemed to have no luck with Oracles or other. Also I was rather alarmed by the number of security issues that seem to appear. Moot anyway as java and other scripting plugins are deprecated:
