Improvement to market search. When exact symbol is entered, that market should be the top result.

When I type a specific ticker into the search often the result I want is way down the list, with matches based on name being higher up. It doesn't help that the symbol isn't shown next to the items in the result (or on the tab in workspace for that matter).

For example, I entered the search "GE" (General Electric). The first result was "Germany 30" instead. 
Contract with Trading View's search, General Electric is the first result, and it favours results that match based on symbol although you can also type a company name.

Hi David,

If you type in the actual code or just "GE." the only result will be General Electric Co. As we offer more than 17000 markets we need to have a larger set of results, but adding the dot will narrow down the research.

I hope that it helps.

All the best - Arvin
