Members report each trade as a dollar range, not an exact amount; volume uses the middle of each range. "Vs. the market since" is the stock's move from the trade date to today minus the S&P 500's: +10% means the trade did 10 points better than putting the same money in the S&P 500 that day. For a sale it's reversed, so a sale scores well when the stock then lagged. Prices exclude dividends. Trades by spouses and children count.
