Here’s how it works:
- We utilize our deep database of historical dividends along with our ability to imply future dividends from the options markets.
- We partner with top corporate actions provider Wall Street Horizon whose algorithms are continuously scanning the news wires and providing ORATS with updated data.
- We have a full-time consultant on staff, with over 10 years of experience analyzing dividends, who constantly monitors, verifies, and evolves our dividend forecast methods to ensure quality.
- Our implied dividend is a distillation of dividend assumptions from the options market. The implied dividend calculation is complex and hard to master, so much so that few professionals in the industry attempt it.

Day trading, short term trading, options trading, and futures trading are extremely risky undertakings. They generally are not appropriate for someone with limited capital, little or no trading experience, and/ or a low tolerance for risk. Never execute a trade unless you can afford to and are prepared to lose your entire investment. In addition, certain trades may result in a loss greater than your entire investment. Always perform your own due diligence and, as appropriate, make informed decisions with the help of a licensed financial professional.
Commissions, fees and other costs associated with investing or trading may vary from broker to broker. All investors and traders are advised to speak with their stock broker or investment adviser about these costs. Be aware that certain trades that may be profitable for some may not be profitable for others, after taking into account these costs. In certain markets, investors and traders may not always be able to buy or sell a position at the price discussed, and consequently not be able to take advantage of certain trades discussed herein.
