Fundamentals

A complete perspective of performance in one place.

Fundamentals looks at 20 critical financial analysis ratios in 5 different categories:  Growth, Profit, Cash Flow, Key Ratios, and of course, Earnings.   

We also take into account Quarter over Quarter, Year over Year, and Trailing Twelve Months’ (TTM) performance with our proprietary weighting formula.  View historical data  by clicking on the upper right corner buttons in each window.

Fundamentals is the slowest of The Score components to affect stocks, due to the limited times throughout the year data is released.  Active investors would generally place more weight on Fundamentals than would a very short-term trader.


Trade Management

This platform makes it easy to manage and adjust trades when needed. The Snapshot feature and the P/L graph enables you to visually assess adjustments.

Once the existing trade is showing on the options page, take a ‘snapshot’.  Enter the adjustment, then take another ‘snapshot’.

To submit the adjustment to the Order Ticket of your brokerage account, click “Trade”. The smart ticket system will even handle the trade adjustment automatically by entering the appropriate buy/sell, open/close combination.  


Earnings Per Share Performance

Once a date has past and earnings have been announced, Earning Per Share (EPS) is color-coded based on how much the company beat (or missed) Expectations.

Go to Find>Calendar, select “Earnings” and view any past date, where earning have been announce, to view the results.

Dark Green/Dark Red is considered surprise, and indicate the company beat/missed estimates by more than 10%

Light Green/Light Red indicate the company beat/missed estimates by 10% or less


Clickable Legends

When comparing trades using the Snapshot feature, the P/L Graph can get a little crowded.  You can clear some of the lines by simply clicking on the legend to toggle visibility.

Clickable legends are also available in other graphs and charts within the platform.


Rolling Positions

It’s easier & faster to evaluate your Trade

Once you have entered a position, you can easily make adjustments for further evaluation using the group of Rolling Icons in the upper-center part of the Option Table.

These icons will allow you to move the whole position:  

Up or Down Strike Prices

Extend or Shorten Time

Widen or Narrow the Spread

The [X] acts as a clear function.  Clicking once will clear the current positions in the chain.  Clicking a second time will act as “all clear”.  This will clear any snapshot trades and fully reset the option chain.


Calendars
