What the menu bar shows

  • The live price. Show the average of five exchanges, or the price on one exchange that you select.
  • The change. Show the change as a percent, in dollars, or both.
  • The Entry Signal dot. A small colored dot shows the current Entry Signal reading. Turn it off if you want only the price.
  • Your format. Select one of three text sizes. Show or hide the cents.
  • Privacy on a shared screen. Blur the price in the menu bar when other people can see your display.
