Since there’s been no success here with requests for ticker-codes, can we at least have unique names that distinguish ordinary shares from options?
Also, if names have abbreviations, can you keep them consistent within the platform?
I have several examples, here’s one of them.
Click on the "History" tab and look at the "Trades in the last 30 days" and notice that the rows identify markets only by name (no code). This can be easy depending on the market name, but for some names, I have to resort to the price column to distinguish between ordinary shares and options (i.e., find the price of shares/options on the day).
For example, in my list of trades, I have “Lake Resources N.L." listed several times, and I cannot tell which are shares or options except by looking for the price on the day (there’s too much to remember). So, I copy the name and search for it, but find nothing because some names (like this one) have a variety of abbreviations. So I search for "Lake Resources" and find two entries for “Lake Resources NL” (i.e., both shares and options with the same name). Then, to identify whether it’s shares or options, I must look for the price on the day of the trade, or when there’s too much price movement I have to search for the time on the day of the trade. All this just to distinguish shares (LKE) from options (LKEOB).
The positions table causes the same problem, although it is a easier to resolve with the last-price being current.
