Fig (iii) Modifying your trading data Modification of data can be achieved using the “Edit” button to place the application in an editing mode. Stock Splits A stock split or stock divide increases the number of shares in a public company. The price is adjusted such that the before and after market capitalization of the company remains the same and dilution does not occur. To enter data for a stock split in AllMyShares, add a BUY transaction for the number of extra shares that you have been issued (using the process described in this document). Use a zero unit price for these new shares. All reports and charts will remain accurate because AllMyShares will pick up the latest unit price from the internet. It is useful to use the Notes section to enter the reason for the transaction (a stock split). A reverse stock split is a process by a company of issuing to each shareholder in that company a smaller number of new shares in proportion to that shareholder's original shareholding which is cancelled. It is the opposite of a stock split, i.e. it is a stock merge — a reduction in the number of issued shares and an accompanying increase in the share price. To enter data for a reverse stock split in AllMyShares, add a SELL transaction for the number of units that your holding was reduced by. Use a zero unit price for this parcel of shares. Again, it is useful to use the Notes section, and all reports and charts will remain accurate. Deleting your trading data Deleting data can be done by using the standard swipe gesture, or by pressing the “Edit” button and then by pressing the standard red circle with a minus sign for a particular row.
