Twitter users only need to look for the associated cryptocurrency or stock ticker after the dollar sign “$” to look up stock prices.
Twitter has released yet another intriguing feature as part of its update tour. The feature allows users to check stock and cryptocurrency prices without leaving her Twitter platform. It was developed to display prices for stocks and cryptocurrencies.
To view stock prices, all users need to do is look for the appropriate virtual currency or stock ticker after the dollar sign “$.” For instance, you can simply type “$ETH” into the Twitter search bar to determine the Ethereum price at the moment.
While looking at the cost of a specific stock or cryptographic money on Twitter, we suggest utilizing the dollar sign after the dollar sign. However, users have reported instances in which the platform displayed stock prices using direct search.
Although price displays for stocks and cryptocurrencies appear intriguing, their practicality is limited. This is because Twitter only displays static images of his X-axis, Y-axis, or unlabeled charts alongside daily stock prices. Although this function can be used to look up prices on a daily basis, the graph only shows the stock’s final closing price.
Robinhood, a stock trading app, is linked to the cryptocurrency and stock price displays on Twitter. Twitter users can click the “View Robinhood” button next to the advertisement whenever they want more information about a specific stock or cryptocurrency.
Twitter directs users seeking complete stock and cryptocurrency information to Robinhood’s website, but TradingView reportedly provides the data. A small Trading View logo can be seen in the upper right corner of the price display. It’s hazy as of now whether Twitter will collaborate with Robinhood, TradingView, or both.
Right now, the component shows costs for every single known stock and digital currencies, yet a few significant ones like Zoom ($ZM) and Airbnb ($ABNB) are missing. However, Twitter claims that in the coming months, it will continue to enhance the feature.
