0
If you've invested in some stocks you know the importance of being able to follow them at any time, especially these days when the markets are so volatile.
The iStocks widget lets you view all your stocks straight from your Dashboard.
Similar to the Apple Stock widget, iStocks displays symbols in a list with their current value and growth or fall.The bottom section shows the progression of the value in a graph, which can be set from over one day up to over two years. You can sort, reorder and rename symbols and look them up for more information and data.
All in all, iStocks is highly similar to the Apple Stocks widget, except that it connects to Yahoo! Finance meaning you can show any stock symbol from any market around the world.There are also five different color themes to choose from. If the widget is getting too crowded you can show different instances of it.
The only real limitation is that iStocks won't show you options, futures and bonds.Notes
Updated and better 1-day and 5-day intraday charts.
- Clear display
- Sort and reorder your symbols

The iStocks Widget displays quotes and historical charts for international stocks, indices and currencies. The widget is provided as freeware and is based on Apple’s Stock widget, which is shipped with Mac OS X.

As a starter app for people new to monitoring their stock holdings, iStocks is quick and easy, both to set up and to glance at for an instant sense of the ups and downs of the market--and your investments. Where iStocks falls quite short is in the ability to organize your stocks once you've added them to the Widget. You can choose to sort by performance, but the only way to customize the organization is to remove the stocks you'd like to group together and then re-add them in the desired order. Further, while changing the background color might be fun and pleasing, it would be more helpful to be able to color-code the stock listings themselves--i.e., one color for mutual funds, another for NASDAQ, etc.; or one color for your actual holdings, another for those you're simply "watching."
- Easy to set up and grasp at a glance
- Nominal customization options discourage long lists of stocks
