How can I filter and search symbols in my FYERS Watchlist?
Finding the right stocks or instruments within your watchlist can be fast and flexible using FYERS' built-in filters and selection tools. Whether you're narrowing down based on price movement or switching between multiple watchlists, this guide explains all the ways to filter and manage your lists effectively.
- Go to the My watchlists tab on the Watchlists screen.
- Click the ⋮ (three dots) next to the selected watchlist.
- From the drop-down menu, select Filter.
- A filtering panel will appear showing exchange checkboxes and sorting options.
- Choose your preferred exchanges (NSE, BSE, MCX) and sort the list by custom order, added date, alphabetical name, last traded price (LTP), absolute change, or percentage change.
Tip: Click Apply to activate filters or Reset to revert to default.
Using the watchlist dropdown to switch between lists
- Click the watchlist name (e.g., Nifty 50) just below the My watchlists tab to open the dropdown menu.
- Use the search field to quickly locate any of your saved watchlists.
- Click on a listed watchlist to switch the view to that list.
- This helps manage multiple watchlists without scrolling manually.
What if...
| Scenario | What you can do |
|---|
| I don’t see the filter option | Ensure you're clicking the ⋮ next to the list name, not inside a symbol row. |
| The search doesn’t highlight anything | The search field is for finding other watchlists, not individual symbols inside them. |
