Position Print Ticker

The Position Print Ticker automatically displays prints for any securities in which you hold a position. The features are the same as the Print Ticker, except you cannot add stocks you do not own.

To open, click Tools > Start Tools in the main menu and select Position Print Ticker.

 

The Position Print Ticker window can be scrolled vertically using the Page Up and Page Down buttons of the keyboard or by using the scroll bars at the right and bottom of the window.

 

Stock symbols and price and volume data shown here and in the software are for illustrative purposes only. Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., its parent or affiliates, and/or its employees and/or directors may have positions in securities referenced herein, and may, as principal or agent, buy from or sell to clients.

SETTINGS

General

  • Put a check next to the columns you wish to display.
  • If you want to check Change from Open, you should first uncheck Change from Previous Close, and vice versa.

Data Filter Increment: This feature allows you to filter prints based on the increment value change you specify here, from .01 to 1.00.

EXAMPLE  If you only want new prints to display every time the trade price changes by .10, set this to .10 using the arrow buttons. Then when any of the stocks in your symbol list prints a trade .10 higher or lower than the last trade it printed, the symbol, quantity, etc. will display in the Position Print Ticker window. The color will correspond to whether it's a negative or a positive change.

Note, however, that the increment value trails the trade price, so if the price reverses down a few cents but not the full amount of the increment, the trade price will be reset to the lower price.
