Watchlist

Overview

The Watchlist widget lets you create, organize, and monitor lists of trading symbols with live quote data. It displays last price, change, and change-percent columns and supports drag-and-drop reordering, collapsible sections, and inline symbol editing.

Features

• Multiple watchlists -- Create, rename, and delete watchlists within a workspace. The list selector in the header lets you switch between them. System watchlists (auto-generated) cannot be deleted.
• Live quote columns -- Each row shows Last, Change, and Change %, color-coded green for positive and red for negative values. Quotes refresh automatically and can be manually refreshed with the header button.
• Sections -- Group symbols under collapsible section headers. Sections can be renamed inline and expanded or collapsed independently.
• Drag-and-drop reorder -- Reorder symbols and sections using mouse, touch, or keyboard (arrow keys with the sortable keyboard sensor). Items can be moved between sections.
• Inline symbol editing -- Double-click a row to open an inline listing selector and change the symbol for that entry without removing and re-adding it.
• Symbol search and add -- The center header control provides a listing search field. Select a symbol and click the check button to append it to the active watchlist.
• Import / export -- Import symbols from a JSON file or export the current watchlist to JSON through the list actions menu.
• Provider selection -- Choose a market data provider from the left header control. Provider-specific parameters and API credentials can be configured through the settings popover.
• Pair color linking -- When the widget is assigned a pair color, clicking a row broadcasts the selected listing to other widgets sharing the same color (e.g. a Data Chart), and the currently linked symbol is highlighted.

Usage

Add the Watchlist to a workspace panel. The header is organized into three groups:

• Left -- Provider settings button, provider selector dropdown, and a manual refresh button.
• Center -- Listing search input and an add button to append the selected symbol.
• Right -- Watchlist selector dropdown (switch between lists, rename, or delete) and a list actions menu (create watchlist, add section, import, export, delete).

Click a row to select it. When the widget shares a pair color with a Data Chart, that click also loads the symbol in the chart. Double-click to enter edit mode and change the symbol inline. Right-side controls on each row let you remove individual items, and section headers have rename and delete actions.
