Read the chart.
See the news beside it.
A price move tells you what happened. The headlines help you investigate the context. SquawkNews brings stock and ETF candle charts together with ticker-linked news, so you can examine the sequence without constantly switching between tabs.
For traders studying a session, investors following a company, and journalists checking the chronology of a market story.
Keep the story beside the price
The chart and its news panel share one workspace. On desktop, the news panel occupies a quarter of the view; on smaller screens, it sits below the chart. Change the ticker to explore recent matching headlines alongside its available price history.
Circle markers place news on the chart timeline. Stories published within the same candle are grouped. Select a marker or headline to highlight the related news and a dotted vertical time reference, then compare the surrounding candles. Article links open separately, keeping your chart in place.
Timing is context—not proof. Did the move start before the headline? Were several reports published together? Was the broader market already moving? A marker helps you ask better questions; it does not establish that a story caused a price change.
From ticker to context in four steps
- Choose a stock or ETF. Enter its ticker and press Enter. When the chart is focused, you can also start typing a new symbol.
- Set the view. Choose the candle interval and history range. The default 24-hour view includes all sessions available in the data; use regular-hours, pre-market or after-market filters for a narrower look.
- Read the sequence. Select news circles or headlines, inspect the publication times, and compare candles before and after. Intraday times follow your local time zone.
- Add perspective. Search the supported indicator catalog, compare a shorter interval with a broader view, and open the article for detail. Indicators describe their price inputs; they are not forecasts.
The price summary shows the latest displayed candle close, available opening information and price/percentage change with its reference. These are research values, not broker execution prices.
Four useful ways to explore
Review an earnings session
Open the company ticker, find an earnings or guidance headline, and locate its candle. Compare the surrounding price action and, where available, the extended-hours session. Check whether the movement had already begun before publication.
Investigate an opening gap
Compare the previous session with available pre-market candles and recent company headlines. Consider thin trading and wider market moves before attributing the gap to a single report.
Check the story behind a move
Read the nearby headlines together instead of choosing the one that fits an initial theory. Switch to a broader interval to see whether the move was exceptional or part of an existing trend.
Build a clearer market chronology
For readers and journalists, the shared timeline makes it easier to distinguish what was reported, when it was published and what price action was visible around that time.

Try the delayed viewActive LiveCast subscription
Use the same workspace with the latest available shared provider snapshots and eligible ticker news, without the additional public 15-minute delay. Charts & News is included with an active LiveCast subscription.
Compare LiveCast plansBoth modes use candle snapshots—not tick-by-tick streaming. Provider coverage, refresh cadence and selected interval affect freshness and history; public data can be delayed by more than 15 minutes. The 24-hour setting includes available sessions, not guaranteed continuous trading for every symbol.
Understand the limits before drawing conclusions
The sidebar contains a limited selection of recent, exact-ticker-matched news, not a complete historical news archive. A missing marker does not mean there was no relevant news. Session filters, candle intervals and available data can change what appears on the chart.
Publication time may differ from when an event happened or first became known. Price can reflect sector developments, economic releases, liquidity and positioning as well as company news. Use the workspace to study observations—not to claim statistical causation or predict a guaranteed result.

Common questions
Does a news marker explain why a stock moved?
No. It shows publication timing, not causation. Other headlines, market conditions, liquidity and positioning can matter, and information may reach the market before a story is published.
Are subscriber charts a real-time price feed?
Subscribers receive the latest available shared provider snapshots without the additional public 15-minute delay. These are candle snapshots, not tick-by-tick streaming or executable quotes. Updates and historical coverage depend on the provider and selected interval.
Can I use charts without a subscription?
Yes. Public chart candles and ticker news are delayed by at least 15 minutes. Refresh cadence and data availability can add further delay. An account without an active LiveCast subscription remains in the delayed mode.
Does the 24-hour view mean every stock trades all night?
No. It includes all available sessions, including overnight data when supplied. It does not create candles when there are no trades or when the provider has no coverage. Regular-hours, pre-market and after-market filters offer narrower views where session metadata is available.
Why are some headlines missing from the chart?
The sidebar shows a limited recent selection matched through exact ticker metadata, not every historical or potentially relevant story. News outside the loaded range or selected sessions may have no marker. A missing headline does not establish that no news occurred.
Which time zone will I see?
Intraday chart and publication times use your local time zone. Daily and weekly bars retain their trading calendar dates.
