Use the Correlations section to select holdings, then enter the number of units held and the portfolio’s Book Cost. For equities, units are shares; for futures, enter the underlying units represented by the position (Treasury futures: 1,000 units per contract; use the +1/−1 contract buttons). Equity options may be added below. If desired the portfolio may be saved locally in your cache. When no saved portfolio is loaded, RiskSnap creates an approximately equal-notional portfolio from the selected holdings, using one or more whole contracts for futures. Click the chart button beside a holding for price history.

1 Div is the trailing twelve-month (TTM) dividend or distribution yield for the selected EOD date: split-adjusted cash dividends or ETF distributions during the preceding 12 months divided by that EOD price.
5Y rate sensitivity: A coefficient of 0.0541 means an estimated 0.541% asset return for a 10 basis point rise in the US 5-year yield. Yield changes are measured in percentage points; this is a historical relationship, not a forecast.
Book Cost: Enter the net cost of the positions: share purchase prices plus fees, futures fees, and option premiums plus fees. Premiums paid are positive; premiums received for written options are negative. Exclude margin deposits, which are collateral. Gain/Loss equals signed Market Value less Book Cost. Enter the combined Book Cost for all positions above.
Futures: Enter the agreed price and a signed quantity: positive units are bought and negative units are sold. Futures value equals (market price − agreed price) × signed contracts × contract factor. Initial-margin defaults are IBKR Canada/US overnight requirements in USD as of September 20, 2026 and remain editable.

The slider is a historical market scenario applied to today’s positions. Shares and futures contracts stay fixed. Each option uses historical spot and IV selected for historical strike/spot moneyness from today’s smoothed grid. Remaining time to expiry stays fixed; r uses that date’s USD 1Y Treasury rate and d uses the preceding year’s dividends divided by that date’s stock price. Historical IV itself is unavailable. The correlation matrix and risk measures use each historical EOD date. 250 consecutive daily matrices are shown, each using the selected correlation period.
