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 Canadian, German, London, Indian, USA markets)
Indexes are not supported. Please use their ETF equivalents. For example:
DJI becomes DIA
SPX becomes SPY
We currently support the following metals
XAUUSD (Gold)
XAGUSD (Silver)
XPTUSD (Platinum)
XPDUSD (Palladium)
HGUSD (Copper)
Currency pairs work via the .FX suffix (e.g. USDJPY.FX, EURUSD.FX).
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.
