Focus Window

How to open

Description

The Focus Window gives the user a quick overview of one specific instrument. The symbol field can show either the ticker of full name of the instrument. The price field allows the user to select between last bid or ask, and below either change +/- change +/-% or both are displayed. At the bottom the change indicator will display the current trend based upon the price field. The right part of the window consists of a range panel, with values in both ends displaying today's high and low. An arrow indicates where the price is according to high/low, and the bar will be red on negative since open and blue on positive.
