loving the volatility feature...would like to know how it is measured so i can reduce my volatility rating which is 'high' at this time...do we have a way of telling what our beta scores are? if ive been at it a long time is it going to be harder to change for me than it would be a newcomer?

Hi ellkell.. thanks very much :)
We're considering publishing the beta score for members but still investigating.. we don't want to overload with information and wondering if members widely accept beta as an understood measure.. what do you think.
I would say that the wider your allocation of stocks in your portfolio and the longer you hold these stocks, will lower your volatility..

I like the changes too... Beta and sharpe ratio would be excellent.
