In order for this to become possible on mobile platforms, finding the right application is a must and there is no shortage of specialized utilities that can help in this respect
Thus, you can take out for a spin a tool like Stocks and Futures to see just how useful it can be for tracking the symbols you invested in or those which you are considering for an investment.
Informative GUI, with a clean look
This app comes with a pretty a decent look, its interface being bent on practical use and without any elements of graphical design that would make it visually appealing. The data is displayed in a clear and easy to read manner, with color highlights for the more relevant figures.
The charts are shown in a clear manner and stretch to cover the whole screen, but there is a minor setback represented by the fact that while in this mode, the app does not adapt to changes in screen orientation.
Browsing the list of symbols you add has a fluent feel and there are no visible lags in presenting the information. There is a letdown that you will see in the upper part of the screen, a space that is reserved for advertisement.
Add and monitor symbols on the fly
Stocks and Futures is designed to accommodate a wide variety of entries inside the main list and it has the advantage of having an auto refresh function.
For each stock symbol you add to the main list you have at your disposal a set of basic details that will help you make a pretty good idea about the evolution of that company and its stocks.
In case you want to trigger immediately an update of the monitored symbols, there is a "Refresh" function you can resort to by tapping the corresponding button hosted in side the maim menu at the bottom of the screen.
Check out the stock evolution with clear charts
A neat feature of this utility is the ability to present the hard numbers into a friendly manner, through some professionally looking charts that are retrieved from Yahoo Finance.
The time frame taken into consideration ranges from one day up to 5 years, but in case the respective company is listed for even longer than that, simply press the "Max" button to see the full graph for the respective stock symbol, ever since it entered the market.
