Add New #tags and Auto-Tagging

Trade Finder Scans have #tags that will automatically appear on the corresponding trade tabs in the Journal, such as #BullCall, #BullPut or #CoveredCall, for example.   Trades built manually will default to #custom.  In addition, trades that have expired will be auto-tagged: #expiration.

You can revise these tags and/or add your own, by the following steps:
1.  On the Journal Tab, select the Trade entry you wish to edit by clicking on the Pencil Icon.
2.  In the Tags section (lower part of box), start typing the word/phrase you wish to use.  Example:  favorite
(It is not necessary to enter the ‘#’ symbol first).
3. Click on “Add (#NewTag)“, then Save.
4. The new Tag will be on the individual Trade tab and the Analytics section of the Journal.


The Legend - Heat and Spectrum Maps

The Legend shows the range of % negative or positive change represented by a color spectrum.  It is important to note: the range does adjust according to the data filters you select for the Heat or Spectrum Maps.

Clicking on the legend will show specific range of each color in the spectrum and give additional information about the definition.


Analyze Date

After the position is entered, click on the “Analyze Date” calendar to select the date.

You can click “EXP” to further analyze the trade on the option’s expiration date or use the arrows to move the original analyze date forward or back.

Your Position Analysis will display with estimated gain/loss calculations and the P/L Graph. 

The P/L Graph will also display the stock price on the analyze date via the vertical line.

Note:  The prices in the options chain will show the start date prices. The prices in the Analysis Panel will reflect the Analyze Date prices.

Once you have selected your date for analysis, you can edit the position, or try a different position, and the analysis will dynamically update.


Profit/Loss Graphs

Any position entered in the Options Chain (Calls+Puts, Calls or Puts) will automatically display a profit/loss risk graph.  The P/L Graph shows the Trade Profile Performance from the current day.

You can compare up to three (3) positions on one graph by utilizing the Camera Icons.  Once you complete one trade scenario, click the first camera then click ‘New’.  Structure your second trade scenario, click on the second camera.   To add a third scenario, click new to structure an additional trade.  The graphs will overlay.

In the Market Tab, select the ‘Go Big’ option in Heat Map for more detail.

You have the capability to adjust your Map based on Stock Price, Average Volume, Market Cap and % Change.

Each row of the selected Index are initially broken down by Sector.  By clicking the ‘action icon’, the Industry groups are shown.  Clicking on the ‘action icon’ of each Industry will display the Stock symbols within that Industry.

The number and color of each box is a ‘slice’ that represents change (+/- , neutral) for that slice of  time for that Sector, Industry or Stock using the Spectrum Color Legend as a reference.

Note the ‘action icon’ next to the Stock Symbol, enabling you to drill down, add to Watchlist,  Research, Journal, etc.
