What is the difference between the value view and the share view on the SatrixNOW account overview page?

The My Equities section of the Account Overview page, located just below the main Account Value, Profit/Loss and Costs View section (see image below), contains details of all the ETF securities an Investor owns.

For each ETF security held, the Investor will see the following standard security information (see diagram below) irrespective of the view (Value or Share) chosen :

  1. Company Logo

  2. The full ETF security name together with the unique share code.

  3. The number of Whole Shares owned by the Investor - 0 whole share in the image above

  4. The number of Fractional Shares held by the Investor - .3466 of a share in the image above

  5. Clicking on the blue Cog Icon will cause a dropdown box to appear, allowing the Investor to initiate the following actions with regard to the specific share: Buy More, Sell ,View the ETF MDD (Minimum Disclosure Document)

Once the Investor selects between the Value or Share view, the rest of the information appearing in the cell, will change as follows:

Value View 

Directly below the standard security information (described above), the Value View displays 3 figures (highlighted in the blue box below) pertaining to that particular ETF security

Purchase Value - this figure displays the total value of the particular ETF security purchased, at the time of purchase

If multiple different purchases were made over time, this value will display the sum of the value of all these securities at their respective times of purchase.

Current Value - this figure displays the total value of the Investor holding (whole and fractional) in that security at that particular time

If multiple different purchases were made over time, this value will display the sum of the value of all these securities at their respective times of purchase.

Profit/(Loss) - this figure displays the Profit/Loss of the Investor holding in the particular security. This is calculated by deducting the Purchase value from the Current Value - In the example above R25.01 - R25.00 = (0.01)

Share View

Below the standard information described above, the Value View displays the following information pertaining to that particular security

Avg. Purchase Price - this figure takes an average of the Purchase Price of a an ETF security across each of the different purchase events that make up their share holding.

Example

An investor makes 3 separate purchases of Satrix 40 ETF shares as follows In the first purchase they buy 10 shares at a purchase price of R98 per share 1 month later they buy 5 shares at a purchase price of R99.62 per share 3 months later they buy 7 shares at a purchase price of R101 per share The day after they conclude the 3rd purchase, the Avg. Purchase Price will be R99.32 - calculated as follows - ((R98 x 10) + (R99.62 x 5) + (R101 x 7)) / (10 + 5 + 7)

15m Delayed Share Price - prices displayed on the SatrixNOW platform may reflect delayed prices, or may be the previous day’s closing price for that security as quoted by the recognised exchange. View a more detailed explanation HERE

Profit/(Loss)% - this figure indicates the percentage by which the 15m Delayed Share Price exceeds the Avg. Purchase Price (Profit) or is lower than the Avg. Purchase price (Loss). In the case of the Satrix Indi ETF figures above ( (72.16 - 72.13) / R72.16 = 0.04%
