Picking the stocks you want to keep up with takes a few seconds and doesn’t require any coding.
Step 1 - Visit the Stock Price plugin
Inside TRMNL, navigate to Plugins > Stock Price.
Here you can:
Name your Plugin
Provide tickers (supports Australian, Argentina, Canadian, German, Mexican, London, USA markets)
We currently support the following indexes, in addition to stock tickers:
VIX, DJI, OEX, XSP
We currently support the following metals
XAUUSD, XAGUSD, XPDUSD, HGUSD
To track crypto prices, use the CoinMarketCap plugin.
Step 2 - You're Done!
Based on your desired refresh settings, TRMNL will begin showcasing the most recent price and daily change very soon.
Troubleshooting
You can show up to 12 tickers at a time. We suggest creating multiple instances of the Stock Price plugin, then building a Mashup layout from your Playlists tab, if you want to see more on the same screen.
To edit a ticker, create a new plugin instance with the correct symbol and delete the incorrect plugin instance.
Some currencies like EUR will use a "," separator versus "." for decimals
If you submit a ticker that is invalid, it will show the code you entered with no price
Some tickers require a different format than their trading syntax. Read this post to learn more, for example NASDAQ should be input as "LFMDP". Another resource for figuring out tickers is here.
