FAQ
Why is "Max Opp" so much higher than "Current"?
They measure different things. Max Opp % is the peak the contract reached after the alert — it already happened and never goes down. Current % is where it's trading right now, which moves all day. A contract that ran to +120% and pulled back to +40% will show both. See Max Opportunity.
What does an alert showing "Awaiting bid" mean?
The alerted price hasn't actually traded yet, so the tracker hasn't started measuring performance. The percentage columns stay blank until it does. This keeps the numbers honest. See entry states.
What's the (adj) tag on the alerted price?
It means the originally alerted price never filled, so tracking was moved to the closest price that actually traded. Every percentage is then measured from a price the market really offered. See entry states.
How often do prices update?
Automatically, roughly every 5 minutes during market hours. You don't need to refresh.
What does the "Status" badge actually measure?
The stock's progress against the alert's thesis levels (support, resistance, targets) — not the contract's profit or loss. "Working" means the stock is doing what the idea expected. See Alert Statuses.
Are the numbers a record of real trades or profits?
No. The tracker shows the opportunity an alert presented based on market prices — the highest the contract traded, where it stands now, and how the thesis is tracking. It is not a brokerage statement, a record of trades you placed, or a measure of money earned. See the disclaimer.
Do my starred alerts and notes sync across devices?
Starred alerts (My Alerts) sync across every device you sign in on. Notes on an alert detail page are saved only in the browser where you wrote them.
I don't see Notifications yet. Why?
Notifications are still rolling out to members. If the Notifications page or bell isn't in your navigation yet, the feature isn't enabled for your account. More on Notifications.
Is the Opportunity Calculator predicting what will happen?
No. It's a model that estimates what a contract would be worth at various prices and dates, to help you understand how options behave. It assumes volatility stays constant and ignores fees and slippage. It is not a forecast. See the Opportunity Calculator.
What do "calls" and "puts" mean?
A call profits if the stock goes up; a put profits if it goes down. Every term in the tracker is defined in the Glossary.
