New great Features in iStocks 0.3.0
I have been busy with enhancing the iStocks dashboard widget. Thanks a lot for your valuable input; most new features were taken from your comments. The new 0.3.0 release has features such as Sorting by performance, Multiple instance support and color themes. It is also possible to rename the symbols and reorder them. And last but not least, the chart fetching has become much more robust by using several fallback data sources.
Check it out at iStocks Widget.

I love this widget however I have many stocks that I watch but I don’t seem able to use “multiple instances” to create more than one of these widgets. When I try, the options are “replace or quit”. What is the trick to opening more than one?

art, for another instance of the widget, use the “+” button on the bottom left of your dashboard screen to expose the palette of your widgets; just click on the istocks widget and it will open another widget instance.
