Stock Broker

The Stock broker tool allows you (for a price) to see which of the blogs in your portfolio will change in value when they are next reindexed. (You must have at least one Sigma point to use this tool.)

This is the Broker Menu

• In order to use the Broker Menu, select the drop-down menu named "Folder".
• Then, select the folder that contains the blogs that you want the stock broker to evaluate. (Or if you want to evaluate all of the folders, then select 'All Folders'.)
• Next, click on the button title "Pay For Use". (The actual price for the use of this tool is based upon your sigma.)

Broker Results

Once you have selected which folder(s) you want the broker to analyze and clicked on the pay button, then the broker will display the results.

• At the top it will tell you which folder these blogs are in.
• Next, it will show you how much you were charged for this analysis.

Blogs with positive value trend

• The blogs in this section are the ones in the folder that you selected that will increase in value upon the next reindexing. It tells you the name of the blog, the number of public shares & the number of shares that you own, the current value of the blog, the projected in-link value, the net change in value of the blog, the P/E Ratio of the blog, and when the blog was last reindexed along with the number of incoming links.

Blogs with negative value trend

• The blogs in this section are the ones in the folder that you selected that will decrease in value upon the next reindexing. It tells you the name of the blog, the number of public shares & the number of shares that you own, the current value of the blog, the projected in-link value, the net change in value of the blog, the P/E Ratio of the blog, and when the blog was last reindexed along with the number of incoming links.

Navigating away from this page

• Please note that the chip fee is for each time that you have the Stock broker analyze your portfolio. If you click to move away from the broker analysis, you will receive a pop-up window asking you if you want to navigate away from this page. It will also remind you that you will not be able to view the information on that page without paying again.

Discounts

The Stock Broker tool is Sigma based, in that you must have at least one sigma to use it and when you reach certain levels of Sigma, you will be given discounts on the cost of using this tool.
