Results
Upon completion of an analyser run a window displaying the list of results appears. The columns of the list vary depending on the function used, but symbols, buy and sell rules, and return are typical.
Selecting 'Transactions' from the 'Result' menu displays a table showing how the value and return changed over the given time period. The following columns appear by default:
- Date
- Stocks
- Market Value (This value is actually the capital value of the portfolio. It is the sum of all the accounts in the portfolio)
- Value Change (The raw difference between the previous and current market values)
- Change (The percentage change of the above)
The following columns can also be displayed:
- Cash Value (The amount in the cash account)
- Share Value (The value of the shares multiplied by the number of shares. The difference between market value and share value is that share value excludes the amount in the cash account)
- Return (The difference between the market values)
