How do I add or remove tickers from an existing watchlist?

To modify a watchlist, right-click its name in the Navigation Panel and select 'Modify Watchlist'. In the Watchlist Manager, you can add tickers by typing in the 'Enter Tickers' box or remove them by clicking the 'X' icon in the Remove column. Remember to click 'Save' to commit your changes.

Can I bulk-add tickers to a Stock Rover watchlist?

Yes. You can copy a list of tickers from an external source (like a spreadsheet or a website) and paste them directly into the 'Enter Tickers' box in the Watchlist Manager. Stock Rover accepts tickers separated by spaces, commas, or new lines.

What should I do if I accidentally delete a ticker from my watchlist?

If you remove a ticker by mistake while using the Watchlist Manager, do not click 'Save'. Instead, click the 'Cancel' button. This will close the window without applying any changes, restoring your watchlist to its previous state.

Where is the 'Modify this Watchlist' button located?

The 'Modify this Watchlist' command can be accessed by right-clicking the watchlist in the Navigation Panel. You can also find it in the Actions Panel if you have enabled 'Show actions panel in navigation' within your Layout Preferences.
