1. The main window of the section - Watchlists

All the main functional blocks of the section are presented here:

- drop-down list of watchlists (Custom / Default watchlists)

- symbol list window

- search block by instrument

All of these sections will be discussed in detail below.


2. Drop-down list of watchlists - Custom / Default watchlists

This list consists of user-created watchlists (Custom watchlists) and system watchlists (Default watchlists).

Custom watchlists can be created, modified and deleted by the user.

The default watchlists are set by the system and cannot be deleted or changed by the user. 


3. Symbol list window

The tool window consists of a symbol list column and three user-configurable data columns.

Sorting alphabetically is available for the symbol list column.

The following values can be selected in the custom columns:

- Ask

- Bid

- Spread

- Last (Last Price)

- Change

- Change (%)

- Volume

Sorting in ascending or descending order of the values for the selected column is also available.


4. Search block by instrument

The search box in watchlists works identically to the search in charts:

- the "Magnifier" icon opens a search window for all available trading instruments

- entering text in the search field forms a list of found matches

- Save watchlist as - creates a copy of the current watchlist under a new name


- Rename watchlist - renames the current watchlist


- Import - opens a dialog box for importing custom watchlists
