User-first answers for the MV platform, live-data labels, market terms, earnings, filings, Prediction Market, MV Chat, and paper-trade risk planning.

Getting Started

4 answers

MarketVista AI helps users read markets with live quotes, watchlists, market news, earnings, filings, MV Chat, paper trading, and prediction-style probability tools. It is an education and market-intelligence platform, not a promise of profit.

Start with Dashboard, Watchlist, Market News, Earnings, and MV Chat. Add a few symbols you already follow, then use paper trading before taking any real-world action.

The Watchlist keeps the symbols you care about in one place and helps you compare price, change, volume, company identity, news, filings, and risk signals.

MV Chat can summarize a symbol using live quote context, levels, filings, news, social discussion when connected, and paper-trade risk planning. It should be used as a research assistant, not as an automatic buy or sell command.

Live Data And Labels

4 answers

LIVE means MarketVista received a fresh provider-backed quote for the current market session. Live data can still move quickly, so always refresh and verify before making decisions.

STALE means the latest provider quote is too old for confident live execution. MarketVista can still show the row for research, but live trading should stay locked.

DELAYED means the provider returned a quote that is useful for context but not real-time enough for live trade decisions.

MarketVista blocks or downshifts live actions when data is stale, unavailable, outside the trade window, or missing required safety gates. That protects users from acting on weak data.

Market Questions

6 answers

A ticker symbol is the short code used to identify a stock, ETF, or other listed asset. NVDA, AMD, AAPL, SPY, and QQQ are examples.

Prices move when buyers and sellers react to earnings, guidance, rates, news, analyst action, filings, institutional flows, market sentiment, and broad indexes.

Support is a price area where buyers may step in. Resistance is a price area where sellers may appear. They are planning zones, not guarantees.

Volume is the number of shares traded. High volume can confirm that a move has participation; low volume can make a move easier to reverse.

Relative volume compares current trading activity with normal activity. A high reading can show unusual attention around a symbol.

Market cap is the company value implied by the stock market: share price multiplied by shares outstanding. It helps compare company size.

Earnings And News

4 answers

Earnings reports show revenue, profit, margins, guidance, and management commentary. A stock can move sharply if results or guidance differ from expectations.

EPS means earnings per share. A beat means reported EPS is above the expected estimate. A miss means it is below the estimate. Guidance can matter as much as EPS.

If providers have not confirmed actual EPS yet, MarketVista keeps the event pending instead of accepting placeholder values such as zero when that would be misleading.

Use news to identify catalysts, then compare the headline with the chart, volume, filings, and broader market. A headline alone is not a full trade plan.

SEC Filings And Insider Activity

4 answers

SEC filings are official company documents such as 10-K annual reports, 10-Q quarterly reports, 8-K current reports, Form 4 insider transactions, and 13F institutional holdings.

Form 4 reports changes in beneficial ownership by company insiders. It can show shares bought, sold, granted, exercised, or otherwise changed.

No. Insider sales can happen for taxes, diversification, planned trading programs, or personal reasons. The transaction code, size, timing, and remaining ownership matter.

A 13F filing shows certain institutional holdings after quarter end. It can help identify ownership trends, but it is delayed and should not be treated as real-time buying or selling.

Prediction Market And Probabilities

4 answers

It ranks symbols with provider-backed price context, probability-style bull, bear, and base cases, and suggested levels for research and paper trading.

Bullish means the current evidence leans toward upside potential. It does not mean the trade is guaranteed or that risk can be ignored.

Bearish means the current evidence leans toward downside risk or weakness. It can also mean waiting for better confirmation before entering.

Neutral means MarketVista does not see a clean directional edge yet. In that state, alerts, watchlist tracking, and paper plans are usually better than forcing a trade.

Paper Trading And Risk

4 answers

Paper trading lets users practice entries, exits, sizing, and risk rules without real capital. It is the right place to test ideas before considering live execution.

An invalidation level is the price area where the idea is no longer behaving as expected. It helps define risk before entering a trade.

A target is a planned area to take profit or reassess the trade. Strong plans usually include more than one target and a clear stop level.

Autonomous research and paper-trade workflows can be prepared, but live autonomous trading should remain locked until broker, owner approval, MFA, risk limits, alerts, kill switch, fresh data, and production monitoring all pass.

Accounts And Help

4 answers

Use FAQ, Help Center, Education, Watchlist, and MV Chat together. Ask MV Chat about one symbol at a time and compare its answer with the chart and filings.

No. MarketVista provides educational market intelligence. Users are responsible for their own decisions and should consider professional advice when needed.

Many pages include personalized data such as watchlists, messages, portfolio context, and paper-trade planning. Login keeps that information tied to the right user.

Refresh the page, check whether live data is marked LIVE or STALE, and use support if the issue continues. Screenshots help identify layout or data problems quickly.
