Purchase analysis
Evaluate entry cost and exit scenarios before placing an order. Instrument price remains separate from the commissions entered.
Open toolGuides
Stocks guide
Stocks tools follow the life cycle of a position: evaluate entry, measure risk and reward, inspect an open position and simulate averaging or dividends.
Position result
Starts from quantity and average price to estimate P/L at a sale price. Make sure the average price follows the convention requested by the tool.
Open toolRisk and stop loss
Measures the loss if the stop were filled at the modelled price. A stop does not guarantee execution price during gaps or slippage.
Open toolRisk/reward ratio
Compares planned loss to the stop with potential profit to the target. It does not tell you the probability of reaching the target.
Open toolAverage-price averaging
Simulates how another purchase changes average price and additional capital required. Lowering average price does not automatically reduce total risk.
Open toolNet dividends and income
Estimates gross dividend, simplified tax, net amount and yield. A dividend is not free profit and price can react to the ex-dividend event.
Open toolFORM REFERENCE
Every field explained
Each block matches one tool. Every field explains what it represents and what value belongs there. Prices and commissions stay separate so calculations remain readable and verifiable.
Purchase analysis
Open toolExpected purchase price
Unit price at which you expect to buy the stock, excluding the broker’s normal trading commission.
Quantity
Number of position units. Stocks may be fractional where supported; contract quantities should be whole numbers.
Stop price
Price at which you plan to exit to limit loss. It is a simulation price: a real stop may fill worse after gaps or slippage.
Target price
Target price used to estimate potential profit or the result of a scenario.
Tax rate on profits
Tax percentage used by the simplified model on positive results. Enter the percentage number, for example 26 for 26%.
Desired net profit (optional)
Net profit you want to achieve. The tool works backwards to estimate the required price or result after modelled costs and tax.
Currency
Currency in which the tool expresses prices, costs and results.
Purchase commission
Total purchase cost used in the calculation. Enter an expected commission before the order or the actual commission after execution.
Sale commission
Total sale cost used in the calculation. For an executed trade, preferably use the broker's actual amount.
Position result
Open toolAverage execution price
