MARKET RESEARCH

The market research center that enables you to analyze companies… and the data that helps you determine whether or not the stock is a viable candidate to trade.
You can’t do without any of those three aspects of trading. That’s why you can’t be without The Dedicated Trader.

The Market Center gives you access to important data that can be critical in helping you make the right decisions.
The Market Center comes with…

• Company research, which provides detailed profiles of companies, including key financial ratios and the date of past and future earnings announcements. Here’s a chance to see the information for more than 8,000 securities, all in one spot.

• A calendar that keeps you posted about impending economic reports that are capable of tilting the market. From unemployment to homebuilding to inflation, you’ll never wake up and be surprised again.

• An earnings center that breaks the information down by date and by company and includes the Greek option values that many traders crave. You’ll even see what the analysts have to say about a company’s earnings and which ones have been upgraded or downgraded by financial analysts.

TRADE CENTER

The Trading Center takes all that knowledge and puts it to work. This is one of the most popular areas of The Dedicated Trader because it helps students in the process of assembling a watch list.

These Daily Strategy Watchlists highlights potential option positions that are on the radar of the research team. It’s a great way to practice non-funded trades and learn new strategies. There’s a watchlist for options, covered calls, put selling and credit spreads.

But that’s not all. There’s access to key level stocks, the result of searching more than 2,000 optionable securities to find potential candidates that have reached an important technical level. Perhaps it’s a big volume move or stocks that are channeling or stocks at support or resistance. If there’s a morning star or evening star pattern being formed, you’ll know about.

And once you have identified the company you want to trade, the Trade Finder feature allows you to see if that position follows the criteria you were taught by BetterTrades. Just enter the ticker symbol and you’ll learn instantly whether the stock is in the danger zone.
