Quote Overview

The Quote Overview page gives you a snapshot view for a specific investment trust symbol. The Summary displays snapshot quote data, delayed per exchange rules (Stocks: 15 minute delay, EST.) and new delayed trade updates are updated on the page (as indicated by a "flash").

Barchart Symbol Notes Tutorial (8:43)

Quoteboard data fields include:

Day High / Low: The highest and lowest trade price for the current trading session.
Open: The opening price for the current trading session is plotted on the day's High/Low histogram.
Previous Close: The closing price from the previous trading session.
Weighted Alpha: A measure of how much a stock or commodity has risen or fallen over a one-year period. Barchart takes this Alpha and weights this, assigning more weight to recent activity, and less (0.5 factor) to activity at the beginning of the period. Thus, Weighted Alpha is a measure of one-year growth with an emphasis on the most recent price activity.
YTD High, Low, Change, %Change: The high and low price year-to-date, with the change and percent change year-to-date.

Fundamentals

For US and Canadian Stocks, the Overview page includes key statistics on the stock's fundamentals, with a link to see more.
Market Cap: capitalization or market value of a stock is simply the market value of all outstanding shares. It is computed by multiplying the market price by the number of outstanding shares. For example, a publicly held company with 10 million shares outstanding that trade at $10 each would have a market capitalization of $100 million.
Shares Outstanding: Common shares outstanding as reported by the company on the 10-Q or 10-K.
Annual Sales: The annual sales, expressed in millions of dollars.
Annual Income: The annual net income, expressed in millions of dollars.
60-Month Beta: Coefficient that measures the volatility of a stock's returns relative to the market (S&P 500). It is based on a 60-month historical regression of the return on the stock onto the return on the S&P 500.
Price/Sales: Latest closing price divided by the last 12 months of revenue/sales per share.
Price/Cash Flow: Latest closing price divided by the last 12 months revenue/cash flow per share.
Price/Book: A financial ratio used to compare a company's current market price to its book value.
Price/Earnings: Latest closing price divided by the earnings-per-share based on the trailing 12 months. Companies with negative earnings receive an "NE."
Earnings Per Share: The trailing 12 months EPS from total operations is the bottom line income after all expenses, divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. For example, if a company has $10 million in net income and 10 million in outstanding shares, then its EPS is $1.
Most Recent Earnings: The amount of latest Earnings Per Share (EPS) paid out to shareholders and the date paid. Most Recent Earnings figures are based on Non-GAAP income from continuing operations.
Latest Earnings Date: The next reported earnings date, or the latest earnings date as reported by the company (if no future date has been released). Stocks whose Next Earnings Date falls within the next 7 days are highlighted in red. In addition, we indicate whether earnings are released Before Market Open (BMO), After Market Close (AMC), and in the case where no time is announced, you will see this labeled as (--).
Annual Dividend Rate: The annual dividend paid over the trailing twelve months. The dividend rate is the portion of a company's profit paid to shareholders, quoted as the dollar amount each share receives (dividends per share).
Annual Dividend Yield: The annual dividend yield, calculated from the trailing twelve months dividend. Yield is the amount of dividends paid per share, divided by the closing price.
Most Recent Dividend: The most recent dividend paid and the most recent ex-dividend date.
Sectors: Links to the Industry Groups and/or SIC codes in which the stock is found.

Price Performance

Options Overview

Highlights important summary options statistics to provide a forward looking indication of investors' sentiment.

Implied Volatility: The average implied volatility (IV) of the nearest monthly options contract that is 30-days or more out. IV is a forward looking prediction of the likelihood of price change of the underlying asset, with a higher IV signifying that the market expects significant price movement, and a lower IV signifying the market expects the underlying asset price to remain within the current trading range.

30-Day Historical Volatility: The average deviation from the average price over the last 30 days. Historical Volatility is a measurement of how fast the underlying security has been changing in price back in time.

IV Percentile: The percentage of days with IV closing below the current IV value over the prior 1-year. A high IV Percentile means the current IV is at a higher level than for most of the past year. This would occur after a period of significant price movement, and a high IV Percentile can often predict a coming market reversal in price.

IV Rank: The current IV compared to the highest and lowest values over the past 1-year. If IV Rank is 100% this means the IV is at its highest level over the past 1-year, and can signify the market is overbought.

IV High: The highest IV reading over the past 1-year and date it happened.

IV Low: The lowest IV reading over the past 1-year and date it happened.

Put/Call Vol Ratio: The total Put/Call volume ratio for all option contracts (across all expiration dates). A high put/call ratio can signify the market is oversold as more traders are buying puts rather than calls, and a low put/call ratio can signify the market is overbought as more traders are buying calls rather than puts.

Today's Volume: The total volume for all option contracts (across all expiration dates) traded during the current session.

Volume Avg (30-Day): The average volume for all option contracts (across all expiration dates) for the last 30-days.

Put/Call OI Ratio: The put/call open interest ratio for all options contracts (across all expiration dates).

Today's Open Interest: The total open interest for all option contracts (across all expiration dates).

Open Int (30-Day): The average total open interest for all option contracts (across all expiration dates) for the last 30 days.

Barchart Technical Opinion

The Barchart Technical Opinion widget shows you today's overally Barchart Opinion with general information on how to interpret the short and longer term signals. Unique to Barchart.com, Opinions analyzes a stock or commodity using 13 popular analytics in short-, medium- and long-term periods. Results are interpreted as buy, sell or hold signals, each with numeric ratings and summarized with an overall percentage buy or sell rating. After each calculation the program assigns a Buy, Sell, or Hold value with the study, depending on where the price lies in reference to the common interpretation of the study. For example, a price above its moving average is generally considered an upward trend or a buy.

A symbol will be given one of the following overall ratings:

Strong Buy (greater than "66% Buy")
Buy (greater than or equal to "33% Buy" and less than or equal to "66% Buy")
Weak Buy ("0% Buy" through "33% Buy")
Hold
Strong Sell (greater than "66% Sell")
Sell (greater than or equal to "33% Sell" and less than or equal to "66% Sell")
Weak Sell ("0% Sell" through "33% Sell")

The current reading of the 14-Day Stochastic indicator is also factored into the interpretation. The following information will appear when the following conditions are met:

If the 14-Day Stochastic %K is greater than 90 and the Overall Opinion is a Buy, the following displays: "The market is in highly overbought territory. Beware of a trend reversal."
If the 14-Day Stochastic %K is greater than 80 and the Overall Opinion is a Buy, the following displays: "The market is approaching overbought territory. Be watchful of a trend reversal."
If the 14-Day Stochastic %K is less than 10 and the Overall Opinion is a Sell, the following displays: "The market is in highly oversold territory. Beware of a trend reversal."
If the 14-Day Stochastic %K is less than 20 and the Overall Opinion is a Sell, the following displays: "The market is approaching oversold territory. Be watchful of a trend reversal."
