The live watchlist · quotes, moves & charts
Your tickers.
Watched properly.
Add any symbol and it joins the list with its live price, the day’s move and the session range. Tap a row and the chart opens — a month of closes drawn right here, in a canvas, no charting library. The indices strip reads the market’s pulse on every visit, and the whole list lives in your browser and nowhere else.
Above all of it runs the tape: three strips carrying what is trending, what is trading most, and the symbols the wire is naming right now — read live, priced, and each one a press away from its own chart.
Quotes, the movers and the four indices are read on this host from Nasdaq’s and CNBC’s public endpoints, cached for seconds and served with their age; Yahoo, through an open relay, is the fallback for what those two do not list. The page says so — they can lag the tape by minutes, and a symbol that will not answer is reported as exactly that. Nothing here is investment advice; it is a well-made window onto public data.

The pulse
The market, at a glance.
Four readings taken live when the page loads — the S&P 500, the Dow, the Nasdaq and Bitcoin — and re-taken whenever you ask.

The watchlist
Add a ticker, keep it watched.
Type a symbol or a company name — the lookup resolves it — or deal yourself ten at random from the catalogue. The list persists in this browser, refreshes on demand, and exports to a PDF snapshot on the labs letterhead.

Any range, drawn here.
Tap any row in the watchlist — or name a symbol directly — and pick a range, from one day to the whole history: closes as a line, the range shaded, the move for the period stated plainly. Drawn in a canvas by this page’s own hand.

About
A watchlist, not a terminal.
The stocks.systems watchlist, brought home to labs.llc and rebuilt on the paper system in both editions. The list is yours and stays in your browser; the quotes are Nasdaq’s and CNBC’s public data, read on this host and labelled with their limits; the charts are drawn by the page itself. No accounts, no keys, no advice — a clean window onto the tape.
The three strips at the top are read the same way and none of them is a stored list: trending is Yahoo’s own board, most active is Nasdaq’s volume screener, and the news row is the symbols carried by the current headlines — weighted so a story naming two companies counts for more than a fund round-up naming fifteen, and nothing older than two days counts at all. The four calls run one after another rather than at once, because the relay answers a queue and rate-limits a crowd. A row that cannot be read says so.
