[5]
and thanks for tuning into the financial investor channel my name is Brent today
[10]
we're going to be covering market probe very quickly it's going to be my very
[14]
first time logging onto there and kind of showcasing it to you now why did I
[18]
move over to Merrill edge really quickly they're often a very nice incentive
[22]
they're offering cash rewards for bringing over assets plus if you qualify
[26]
it you can actually qualify for 300 or you get 300 free trades regardless of
[32]
however much money you bring over to Merrill edge now if you are a brand new
[36]
investor and you start an account on Merrill edge
[39]
say your Roth IRA or your regular just tax your normal trading account you get
[47]
300 free trades and you get 90 day access to market pro which I'm going to
[53]
be showcasing here and they also have their reward program so if you do invest
[59]
over fifty thousand dollars you can get 30 free trades of equity in Ethiopia
[65]
khalida stocks and you get the Merrill edge marketpro if you invest 25 thousand
[70]
to their financial advisors they can actually activate $0 stock trades so
[77]
always talk to them if you go to their main website you can actually get chat
[83]
and help on the bottom right hand side during during business hours so do that
[89]
it's going to be very beneficial here you can also do trading here at the dot
[94]
bottom right from a website all their websites allow you to buy and trade from
[97]
and provided with quite a bit of information
[100]
now onto marketpro so as you log on here you're gonna get a welcome guide and
[106]
this is the very first time that I've logged on here so they do have a lot of
[111]
information they have a little quick start here where you can click on some
[116]
predefined layouts containing account information charts and watch lists and
[120]
more so here I can click on my portfolio and it would showcase my my portfolio
[126]
somewhere in here I don't have anything currently on maro edge I'm still in the
[130]
middle of transferring my portfolio and my account from Robin Hood over to
[135]
Merrill edge I can do some research here so if I wanted to type in a ticker
[140]
symbol what's a very common one Johnson & Johnson and I could do a quick
[145]
research on him I can see that the last price is 132 89 it changed positively
[150]
for the day by 0.6 it has a low bid it's asking at 132 ninety-seven shows you the
[157]
volume and the last trade time so very useful information here you can also go
[165]
into you can add it to your symbol list you can set an alert for it you could
[169]
buy you get by looks like down here you
[174]
could begin setting it up I don't actually have any money in my account so
[178]
I'm sure that's why everything is grayed out right now so I'm gonna go ahead
[182]
other ghosts now it's where I was working I can type in the qualities and
[187]
I could do a limit and the price and good for the day and then do it looks
[191]
like it was pulling up some information out here you can see it's information
[196]
here and I could preview the order but I'm not worried about that right now
[200]
next I could do a watchlist so this is the watchlist here
[205]
so lots of information so I can look up the chart for johnson johnson so it
[211]
looks like i can bring this up and down and kind of look at the candle graphs of
[216]
whether it closed positive for the day or if it closed negative for the day so
[220]
if it's green this indicates the trade volume so this stock was traded at a
[227]
very high volume on the way up and then the little candlesticks represent
[231]
whether the stock opened or closed or basically if it closed
[237]
positively it's green if it's if it closed negatively then it would be red
[244]
so those are very nice there was a down point right here you can see the reza
[248]
kept closing lower and lower and lower and there was very little people buying
[252]
into him but here once it reached its lowest point here there was a good
[257]
amount of investors that bought into it and it kind of settled for a bit and
[262]
then began picking back up so that's what the candlesticks mean
[266]
looks like there's a lot of other information down here kind of eyeing it
[272]
really quickly you can see the current dividend yield the annual dividend the
[276]
current dividend per share per quarter its p/e earnings per share it's
[281]
ex-dividend date is August 25th so the next one would be around November 25th
[286]
so good information there I can go over to trade and this is more of a trade
[291]
window here so Johnson & Johnson's and here you can see that they have the
[297]
calls the putts and just a bunch of information you know this is my very
[302]
first time using a professional level platform so this is all just a lot I'm
[308]
not really sure what to really look for at this time so I can't really tell you
[312]
you know I've came from what did I use in the past motive investing since 2015
[318]
and just recently switched to Robin Hood but now as I am adding more to my
[324]
portfolio and begin beginning to grow it over time I want to look for a
[329]
professional level and Merrill edge offered me the best the best level
[335]
software and just the perks that it has you know I was looking for drip so I can
[340]
automatically reinvest my dividends that I'm paid out I can just automatically
[344]
buy shares fractional shares I don't have to worry about looking daily if I
[349]
got paid on Robin Hood and then choosing stocks that I could buy in a hole so I
[353]
may not always get paid out to the point where I can buy a complete share
[358]
so having drip enabled on my Sox such as ATP Pepsi that allows me to buy
[364]
fractional shares so here we can see that we can get some technical insights
[369]
here so in the technical analysis tab is another another graph over here and
[376]
over here you can see technical insight you can see the six bullish nine bearish
[381]
it shows you the support found and the resistance found and
[389]
some other information you can see strategy build I'm not sure what I'm all
[394]
looking at here but I guess you could build some sort of a strategy you can go
[400]
intraday trader please wait while the application initializes and this just
[407]
gives you a whole bunch more information and then education on demand so it looks
[413]
like you can get some and power yourself you can actually get some training on
[418]
here so that's very educational and then our next our last tab is options
[423]
analysis and this gives you the calls the pots and then over here on the
[428]
right-hand side you can select looks like you can select different options
[436]
here you can decide whether you're bullish or bearish so based on what your
[441]
play is are you bullish are you bearish on the specific stocks on Johnson &
[444]
Johnson I would be bullish I think it has good potential to grow past its
[449]
current resistance and so I could put in there's a stimulator here you could
[455]
select your simulations and I guess you can yeah you can move it around and see
[460]
what your profit would be and your percentages return on those specific
[465]
positions now I haven't done a lot of options so I'm not going to be a basket
[469]
with that right now but I will definitely read into a bit more now that
[472]
I have this professional level software you know it kind of opens me up to
[476]
actually want to learn how to use this program and all that it can offer so
[482]
here you can set up your watchlist it kind of gives you step-by-step on how to
[486]
set it up and then how do I customize it charge it shows you how to customize
[490]
shirts by the candlesticks you can do line plots area plot and so on are there
[496]
any other color themes available it looks like if you don't like the darker
[500]
theme you can go with a great theme or blue theme how do I customize my
[505]
workshop my workspace it kind of gives you ideas
[509]
on how to your workshop and then what is what is
[514]
market death and it says market debt also referred to as level 2 quotes lets
[519]

[525]

[532]
gives you a breakdown of like their help menu for whatever tab you're really
[538]

[542]
specific tab and if you have any further questions you can always send a secure
[546]

[552]
you know there's a lot of you can see your balance your portfolio detail your
[556]
holdings I don't care Lea have any holdings I can
[560]
see my current orders or my activity a lot of these little tabs I've clicked on
[566]
but I may not have anything to actually display so it's just kind of not
[574]
bringing up anything of importance at this time so that is it I believe for
[582]
this video you know I'm going to be playing with us for the next week or so
[585]
just kind of once I get my portfolio in here I'll definitely be showcasing a bit
[590]
more with some newer information on how to perform if you guys have ever or will
[595]
ever look into Merrill edge market Merrill edge just in general go ahead
[600]
and leave that in the comments below I think this is a great platform even for
[603]
brand new investors offering that 300 free three free trades for the first 90
[609]
days plus access to their Market Pro software for their first 90 days and
[613]
then once you do have your portfolio established you can activate drip if you
[619]
are a dividend that's sure that's the style of investing that I do but of
[624]
course this has more than just you know it offers much more than just tools for
[630]
debit investing as you saw you can do options you can use all sorts of stuff
[635]
on here so instead of having to go out there and research on dividend com or
[640]
Yahoo or Google all your information you can find can be done through this
[645]
professional level software so that is it for this video I did not want to make
