The iStocks Dashboard Widget is provided as freeware and is based on Apple`s Stock widget, a widget that is shipped with Mac OS X.
This original widget is limited to US symbols only. iStocks overcomes this limitation and uses the international Yahoo services.
Here are some key features of "iStocks Dashboard Widget":
· option to sort by performance
· support for multiple widget instances and 5 different color themes
· renaming and reordering of symbols
· robust chart fetching by using several fallback data sources
· update notification
· symbol lookup and suggestions
· support for currencies
· extended precision for quotes and changes
What`s New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· Yahoo has disabled the 1-day and 5-day chart image service, so I switched to a
· new Yahoo`s chart data service, which now supports intraday qutoes.
