I'm

I'm wondering if there is a way (or script) that will download the current index stocks, for example the djia 30 stocks? What I mean is not I insert the list of stocks in a watch list but actually the system gathers the stocks that are in the current list and keeps it updated.

Thanks.

Best Answer

Use "Symbol -> Auto Manage Symbols" feature.
Check "Force the update of symbol..." before saving.
