You can access both custom watch lists and positions from the same tool.
Two predefined Watch Lists are available in Active Trader Pro and ActiveTraderPro.com.
The Indices Watch List provides access to streaming real-time quotes for a predefined list of index securities. To launch the Indices Watch List, use the dropdown menu from within the watch list tool, select Watch List, then select Indices. This predefined list of indices cannot be customized, but any index symbol can be added to one of your custom watch lists.
The Futures Watch List provides access to delayed streaming quotes for 29 predefined front-month futures contracts. Streaming quotes are delayed by 10 minutes. The front-month contract will automatically roll to the next month's contract upon expiration. It will also roll to the next contract month when the next contract month has an open interest that is more than twice that of the current month, or where the next contract month has a larger trading volume than the current month. To launch the Futures Watch List, use the dropdown menu from within the Watch List tool, select Watch List, then select Futures.
Create up to 15 custom Watch Lists, tracking up to 50 securities per list. Custom Watch Lists are accessible across all Fidelity platforms, including Fidelity.com, the Active Trader Pro Platforms, and Fidelity Mobile.
Watch Lists can include all quotable securities, including stocks, ETFs, bonds, mutual funds, money market funds, indexes, and options.
To create a new Watch List, use the Manage dropdown menu and select Create New Watch List.
To edit an existing custom Watch List, use the Manage dropdown menu and select Edit Watch List. Only custom Watch Lists can be edited.
To add a symbol to a custom watch list from the Quote, Option Chain, Filters, or Chart tool, use the Action or Right-click menu and select Add to Watch List.
Within any custom Watch List, you can click to edit entries in the Symbol, Price, Quantity, and Notes fields. If you have new information on a tracked security, this is a quick and easy way to update your Watch List.
Use Positions to view the open positions you hold in your accounts. To launch Positions, select Accounts then select Positions from the main navigation menu To navigate to your positions from a custom Watch List, select Accounts from the dropdown then choose the account you’d like to view.
QUICK TIP: If you hold Hard to Borrow securities, identified by the HTB icon next to the symbol, use the Right-Click menu to link to a detailed Hard to Borrow summary.
To hide security types from the positions display, such as cash or mutual funds, select the Manage menu located at the top right corner of the Positions tool, choose Show/Hide Security types and un-check the security types you want to exclude, then click Apply. Note: The list of security types displayed is dynamic based on your account holdings. The totals displayed below your positions will exclude positions you've elected to hide.
If lot information for a position is available, there will be a View Lots selection available from the Right Click Menu or from the Action menu, located to the right of the symbol. Select View Lots to see detailed lot information for your position.
Use the position heat map to visualize your holdings based on Today's Gain/Loss, Total Gain/Loss, Volume, Yield and P/E Ratio. Select the icons located to the right of the Positions dropdown to switch between traditional list and heat map views.
The size of each individual security box is based on the account concentration of a position. The color scale is dynamic with the brightest colors being assigned to the securities with the highest/lowest value. For example, the position with the brightest green on Today's Gain/Loss % heat map represents the security with the largest percentage gain since close. Some additional features to keep in mind:
If there was a wash sale for a transaction, a W will be displayed to the right of the symbol, with disallowed loss information available on hover. To show unadjusted cost basis information for your open positions, go to Settings or right click on a column header and select the desired fields: Unadjusted Price, Unadjusted Basis, Unadjusted Tdy G/L, Unadjusted G/L. If you do not see these fields, please call Fidelity at 800.544.6666 for assistance.
Use the Action menu next to each symbol to open a new tool with the symbol in context, such as a seeded trade ticket or chart. You can also use the Right-Click menu to view research options on Fidelity.com for that particular security type or open a new tool with the symbol and additional fields in context. Double-click on a symbol or row in your Watch Lists to send it to your linked tools.
Data can be displayed and reordered by dragging and dropping columns. You can also customize column width using your mouse.
