Modify financial symbols in a financial Play List Item

The following procedures apply to modifying financial symbols for financial Play List Item in a video Play List.

You can select additional financial symbols, delete existing financial symbols, and change the display order of financial symbols selected for a financial Play List Item.

To add an additional financial symbol:

  1. In the Select Financial Symbols box, select the financial symbols you want to add to this Play List Item. There are two views available in the Select Financial Symbols dialog – Lists view and Instruments view. By default the Lists view is selected. To display individual financial stocks, click Instruments.
    Lists view (defaut):this view contains the instrument codes for all available indexes and chain instruments (e.g., S&P 500, NYSE Net Gainers, etc.) in a table format.
    Instruments view: this view contains all available individual stocks (e.g., Microsoft, Intel, etc) in a table format.
  2. Click the Select button associated with each list/symbol you want to add to this Play List Item. The items selected will automatically be added to the Selected Symbols box as they are selected. Selected symbols will be added in the order they are selected, however, the order can be changed by clicking on a symbol and using the UP, DOWN, REMOVE, and REMOVE ALL buttons.
  3. (Optional for Lists) If the symbol added is for a chain instrument (e.g., Nasdaq Net Gainers), you can specify the number of stock symbols you want to display for the chain in the Symbols Per Chain field. For example, if you only want to display the top 5 Net Gainers, you would select Show First and then type “5″ in the Show First field. The default setting is Show All – meaning all the symbols that make up the selected chain or list will be displayed. The Instruments column in the table indicates how many stock symbols make up a particular chain (e.g., RetailStocks symbol contains 20 individual stocks).
