Long-Term Analysis

It is best to consider a long-term outlook for a ticker by using Fundamental Analysis (FA) ratings. The rating of 1 to 100, where 1 is best and 100 is worst, is divided into thirds. The first third (a green rating of 1-33) indicates that the ticker is undervalued; the second third (a grey number between 34 and 66) means that the ticker is valued fairly; and the last third (red number of 67 to 100) reflects that the ticker is undervalued. We use an FA Score to show how many ratings show the ticker to be undervalued (green) or overvalued (red).

MAR’s FA Score shows that 3 FA rating(s) are green while HLT’s FA Score has 2’s green FA rating(s).

  • MAR’s FA Score: 3 green, 2 red.
  • HLT’s FA Score: 2 green, 3 red.

Short-Term Analysis

It is best to consider a short-term outlook for a ticker by using Technical Analysis (TA) indicators. We use Odds of Success as the percentage of outcomes which confirm successful trade signals in the past.

If the Odds of Success (the likelihood of the continuation of a trend) for each indicator are greater than 50%, then the generated signal is confirmed. A green percentage from 90% to 51% indicates that the ticker is in a bullish trend. A red percentage from 90% - 51% indicates that the ticker is in a bearish trend. All grey percentages are below 50% and are considered not to confirm the trend signal.

MAR’s TA Score shows that 4 TA indicator(s) are bullish while HLT’s TA Score has 5’s bullish TA indicator(s).

  • MAR’s TA Score: 4 bullish, 3 bearish.
  • HLT’s TA Score: 5 bullish, 4 bearish.

What's the Difference Between Tokens and Altcoins?

Between their inherently technical nature, multiple varieties and sub-varieties, and endless terminology, cryptocurrency (defined here as digital or virtual currencies that are encrypted using cryptography, powered by the immutable digital ledger known as the blockchain) represents a whole, complex world.All altcoins possess their own blockchain, independent from their source code, that records all transactions of their native coins. Many altcoins are variants, or forks, of Bitcoin that leverage that cryptocurrency’s open-source protocol as the basis.

4 Ways to Save for Retirement Without a 401(k)

4 Ways to Save for Retirement Without a 401(k)

401(k) plans are attractive savings options for good reasons: tax breaks, potential employer matching, and access to growth investments.Roth IRA contributions are made in after-tax dollars, and withdrawals for account owners age 59 ½ or older are tax free (if the account is at least five years old). Investors with an individual adjusted gross income below $32,000 can even claim between 10 and 50 percent of contributions as a saver’s tax credit.

Artificial Intelligence for Language Translation?

Some use cases – predicting earthquakes, recognizing objects, and comparing medical scans, for example – offer tantalizing glimpses of a promising future.Now, MIT researchers have announced an “unsupervised” language translation model whose early returns signal a future with “faster, more efficient computer-based translations of far more languages.” Most widely-used translation programs (like Google’s) learn via models.
