    • NASDAQ consolidated (ending in O),
    • NASDAQ Stock Market (ending in OQ),
    • NYSE (ending in N),
    • Toronto Exchange (ending in TO),
    • Fro example, AAPL.O is for Apple on NASDAQ.
  7. Repeat to add multiple symbols. Click Back to save and return.
  8. To add other types of financial data, repeat the steps using a new financial list.

Behavior Notes

  • Changes to the playlist may take a few minutes to appear on the ticker, depending on the content scroll cycle.
  • Do not mix incompatible financial data types in the same playlist item to avoid errors like “INCORRECT_TYPE.”
  • Each playlist item is rendered as an image. Interrupting the scroll mid-cycle is not supported.
