Valuation
Is it Overvalued or Undervalued?
Valuation looks at Key Ratios and Projected Price to evaluate the stock’s current value.
Key Ratios like both trailing and forward PE along with PEG (Price/Earnings/Growth) are weighed.
The Price compared to Book (flow of business), Cash Flow, and Sales are also very important factors to provide a well-rounded synopsis of the valuation modeling of the stock.

Virtual Account Overview
Virtual Trading gives you the real trading experience without risking any money. It is a valuable “next step” learning tool – designed to mimic the trading experience as closely as possible.
You’ll start with a $100,000 account. Virtual, of course.
Trades are executed during Market hours – 9:30 a.m. – 4 p.m. Eastern Time, however there is a 15 minute delay after Market open for orders to begin executing.
As with Live Accounts, there are limits on trades if there is not sufficient Buying Power in your Virtual Account. There can be expensive Spread/Margin Requirements to adhere to.
Virtual Accounts do have limitations that Live Accounts do not have:
Virtual Accounts are not subject or responsive to Corporate actions such as buyouts, name or symbol changes, stock/option splits and strike price adjustments to name some examples.
Virtual Accounts are “Auto-Journaled”. This automatically keeps record of all trades for later analysis and reconciling.
These practice accounts are identified by a yellow bar on the left side of the account window.
Virtual Accounts are powered by Choice Trade to provide the real trading experience.
Snapshot: Comparing Positions
The Snapshot feature gives you the ability to compare up to three scenarios in one view without having to change screens or erase previous setups. You can even submit a trade from this part of the platform!

- Next click one of the camera icons:
- Repeat the first step using the Rolling Icons to adjust the initial position to a new scenario:
- Click the 2nd camera icon & repeat the above steps for the last trade comparison.
Note: The position lines are color coded to match the Snapshot (or New) icon.
Once you decide on the optimal position, click ‘Trade’ from the P&L Graph and you’ll be taken to the Order Ticket of your brokerage account with the option information auto-filled.

Share Performance View
This view keeps information simple. Aside from the Stock symbol, latest stock price, (price change since open), The Score, Quantity (Lots/Contracts), it shows:
$ Gain (Entry Price – Current Price)
% Gain ($ Gain / Entry price)
Total Performance View
Similar to Share Performance, this view shows the Entry Cost and Current Value of active trades.
$ Gain and % Gain values are calculated the same way as in the Share Performance view.
Total Gains
In addition to Gains $ and Gain %, which are to-date values since the trade’s inception, this view displays Day Gain $ and %. The latter show performance on the current trading day in relation to the previous trading day.
In this example on ZION: The previous trading day the $ Gain = $220, and Current Value = $15.00.
The Current Value ‘today’ is $60.00 (a 400% change).
