Watch or on confirmation The signal asks readers to watch for a stated condition. Share or equity A share is a small ownership stake in a company. Its price can rise or fall. Entry or reference price A reference quote is not proof that a trade could be made at that price. Horizon or deadline The forecast time window. A saved deadline states when the outcome should be checked. HIT and MISS MISS means it did not meet those rules. These labels do not measure profit after trading costs. Estimates whose accuracy has not been established by testing A judgement that has not been shown to match real outcomes reliably. It is not a proven success rate. Calibration Checking whether stated chances match real results across many forecasts. An estimate can still be untested. Earnings or net income A company’s profit after its costs. Earnings reports show how much it made or lost. Profit per share (profit per share) Company profit divided by its number of shares. It helps compare profit with the share price. Margin Profit compared with sales after the stated costs. A lower share of sales kept as profit means less profit from each dollar of sales. Margin in context A business margin compares revenue with stated costs; it may be a percentage or profit per unit, such as dollars per barrel. For a leveraged trade, margin means money required to support the position. Check the stated measure. Guidance or outlook Management’s forecast for future sales, profit or other results. It can change. Bond A loan investors make to a government or company. The borrower promises payments under its terms. Bond yield The return implied by a bond’s current price and payments. Yield A return shown as a rate. Bond returns, dividend payments and crypto rewards are different things. Manufacturing yield means usable output instead. Percentage point The gap between two percentages. A rise from 4% to 5% is one percentage point, a 25% rise in the original rate.
