  • Create research notes: Embed the Contribution utility in any view of your workspace to easily monitor your watch list while you submit research notes. Use the type-ahead feature for the Identifier and Related Symbols sections, and cut and paste or drag and drop text and attachments into the Contribution window.

  • Customize Chart Annotations: Create customized charts with annotations that link to your firm’s internal research notes. Select custom indicators, filters, and pop-up alerts.
