More than one stock?
jrcharney opened this issue · 3 comments
I was elated to come across your tmux plugin, but there's just one problem.
It looks like I can only track ONE stock. But I have stock in more than one company.
Mop is another stock tracker, and you can track more than one stock. The file saves all your symbols to a file where they are separated by space.
What if you applied the same format as mop does, or alternatively what if you can use the same data from the file that mop stores its information from such that your app can source that information?

Thanks for reaching out, appreciate it.

Yea I whipped this up for a very singular purpose for now, was meant to only display one stock on tmux. Something you wanna keep an eye out on, may be have a position going or you lately how everyone is caught up with GME :D

That is an excellent tracker, I will look into it more.

That would be a nice elegant way of doing it, gonna look into this for sure.
Actually there's a better app than Mop. Turns out Mop hasn't had a release in almost six years.
ticker is much better. Still, Tmux does need an app that does stock symbols.

Yea I noticed that and came across ticker as well. Gonna look into this one and see how to work this out best.
As of right now, I'm leaning more towards a config file which stores stocks and they are displayed in tmux, like the one used in ticker as well.
One Issue with that might be the max number of stocks. tmux can't effectively display endless stocks. So either there is a hard limit to the number of stocks (which again seems very limiting) or the user decides for themselves how many they would like to display.
Still, Tmux does need an app that does stock symbols.
Agreed.
