5. Export Tickers

You can export all the tickers from your watchlist to an Excel sheet for further analysis or record-keeping.

6. Clear Tickers

If you want to remove all symbols from a watchlist, the “Clear Tickers” option allows you to delete all tickers in one go.

7. Filter by Color

You can assign different colors to various tickers in the watchlist to visually differentiate them. These color codes can then be used to filter stocks based on specific attributes or categories.

8. Different Views of Watchlist

GoCharting provides multiple views for your watchlist:

• List View
• Compact View
• Candle View

These views can be accessed by clicking the settings button in the top-right corner of the watchlist. You can also enable or disable features like alerts, notes, and trading directly from the settings.

9. Trading from Watchlist

GoCharting allows you to buy or sell directly from the watchlist. When you hover over a stock, you’ll see options to trade (buy/sell). This feature is also available by right-clicking on the stock symbol.

10. Create Alert from Watchlist

You can create alerts directly from the watchlist. When you hover over a stock, you’ll see an option to set alerts. You can also right-click on the stock to add an alert.

11. Add Notes to Stocks in Watchlist

Adding notes to stocks helps keep track of specific insights or strategies. You can add, edit, or delete notes by hovering over the stock or by right-clicking on it.

12. Add Segments

GoCharting allows you to segment your watchlist by right-clicking on a stock and selecting “Add Segments.” This feature helps in categorizing stocks within a single watchlist. You can drag and drop stocks between different segments.

13. Resize Columns

The width of the vertical columns in your watchlist can be resized to optimize the display of data. This is helpful when you want to adjust your chart view alongside the watchlist.

14. Create Scanner for Different Parameters

You can create custom scanners within the watchlist to sort stocks based on specific parameters such as Cumulative Volume Delta or Open Interest (OI).

To use this feature:

1. Select these options from the field list (accessible via the three dots next to the settings button).
2. Once added as columns, clicking the column header will sort the stocks based on the increasing or decreasing order of the selected parameter.
