In real-time portfolio accounts the following properties of securities may be altered:
Key: This is a marker assigned by the user to identify a security. The key field is optional but no key may be assigned to more than one security.
Dependency: The user may enter the key of another security in this field. This Indicates that the behavior of the security is dependent on the behavior of the security whose key has been entered.
Spread: This is equal to the difference in the yields of the two securities multiplied by 100. If the spread is changed the yield of the dependent security will automatically be adjusted.
Yield: Reflects the value of the bond giving consideration to the length of time to maturity, credit quality of the issuer/guarantor, and general market conditions. A change to the yield of the dependent security will result in an automatic readjustment to the spread of the dependent security. A change to the yield of the other security will result in an automatic readjustment to the yield of the dependent security.
Price Quote: The input here depends on the Price Type. It may be a percentage or a direct amount if the respective Price Type is Discount/Yield or Bid.
