Dashboard Style: The Classic – Plus

This Trading Dashboard view might appeal to the investor who likes to keep things simple and straightforward, but with a bonus. Here you’ll find a Factsheet – which provides detailed quote information – and order status, but also an overview of North American indices. 

To replicate this Dashboard example:

  1. Launch the Trading Dashboard from Trade & Transfer
  2. Select a work space from the five available across the top of the Dashboard
  3. Open the main menu in the top left corner of your screen
  4. Select “Overviews” and then “Major North American Indices”
  5. Size and drag the overview widget to the left side of your work space
  6. Return to the main menu in the top left corner of the Dashboard
  7. Choose “Widgets”, then “All” and click “Add” on the “Factsheet” widget
  8. Size and drag the widget to the upper right side of your work space
  9. To populate, use the search function at the top of the widget or drag and drop a security from the “Overviews” widget (the example above uses Royal Bank of Canada)
  10. Return to the main menu again and choose ”Widgets”, then “All” and add the “Order Status” widget
  11. Size and drag the widget to the bottom right side of your work space
