At TradeSmith, we strive to improve our products. These improvements can help you on your path to becoming a more independent investor. As such, we have several updates for you this week in TradeStops and and an update to the publisher list for our Crypto products.
Stay tuned for our Bulletin Board at the end of this Insider Update for exciting events we have coming up. You won’t want to miss out.
TradeStops
Our first update is the direct result of user feedback and features a small change to the top menu bar. Previously, our research tools were all located under the “Research” tab. Now, we’ve renamed that menu option to “Tools” to more accurately reflect what you’ll find there — more than just research. But don’t worry; we haven’t moved anything out of that section.
We did update our research tools, though.
Earlier this year, we revamped TradeStops. After this initial update, there were two ways to access the Position Size Calculator — from the Dashboard and the Research tab. There were different versions of the Calculator depending on which option you clicked. Now, we’ve made it uniform. Both the Dashboard and Tools options will take you to the updated Position Size Calculator.
Beyond making our Position Size Calculator uniform throughout the site, you can now use it to position size for options. You just need to type in the option’s ticker symbol.

The results will show you your dollar investment risk. From there, you can edit your investment amount and amount at risk. You can also add the ticker to a watchlist.
The next tool updates impact the Asset Allocation, Portfolio Volatility Quotient (PVQ) Analyzer, Risk Rebalancer, and Pure Quant tool. When you run research with these tools, you’re able to display your ticker symbols (either in a pie chart or a list).

We’ve made these tickers clickable! Clicking a ticker in the Asset Allocation Tool (like pictured above), the PVQ tool, or Risk Rebalancer will bring you to the Position Card Page for that tool. Clicking a ticker from the Pure Quant brings you to the Stock Analyzer.
Crypto by TradeSmith and Crypto Ideas by TradeSmith
As you may know, TradeSmith can plug into your favorite newsletters and then put our indicators to work on the publishers’ recommendations. One newsletter of interest was Crypto Capital. It had to be removed temporarily from our site, but now it’s back. You’ll find it under Stansberry Research.
Stansberry Research’s newsletters can be found on the Newsletter page in Crypto by TradeSmith.

You can add Stansberry Research to Crypto Ideas from the Crypto Finder page.
