Using the Navigation Panel Ticker List

In the Navigation Panel to the left of the chart, you can select a desired data set and then have the list of ticker from that data set available for quick switching in the chart.

To change the set of tickers displayed in the Navigation Panel, simply select a different data set, e.g. a different portfolio, watchlist or screener. You can also switch to the Quotes list or to a list of stocks from an index, a sector or an ETF grouping.

To do this, click on the pull down arrow to display the Navigation Panel and select the desired item you wish to display. The tickers listed will be populated from the new item you select.

Highlighting Tickers

With multiple lines in the chart, if you mouse over the ticker at the top of the chart it will bold the line so you can better see the line in the chart as highlighted in the screenshot below.

You can also mouse over a line within the chart and the ticker that the line belongs to will be highlighted with a box drawn around it on the top portion of the chart.
