Markets
The market follows the broker. Once one is connected, the home screens know which market they are in, and everything that is market-shaped comes from one file for that market.
What follows the broker
A broker file says which market its accounts trade in. The matching market file then supplies:
- The session: the status dot on Desk · Home and Watch · Home follows that market's regular hours, in your computer's local time.
- The index: Risk measures the home book against that market's index (NIFTY 50 for India, the S&P 500 for the United States), and says so on the card.
- The currency and the digits: rupees grouped in lakhs, dollars in thousands, on every home screen.
- The exchanges: the add box on Watch · Home offers them, and the search box knows the market's Yahoo symbols.
- The public record, where the market has one the desk can read: the results calendar under Desk · Home, the filings block on the home ticker page (quarterly results, shareholding, announcements), and the market's own cards on Macro. The economic calendar adds that market's prints beside the US ones.

With no broker
Open Settings and pick a Home market under the broker section; the choice is yours only while no broker is connected, because a connected broker sets it. With a market chosen, Watch · Home takes that market's exchange symbols and quotes them through Yahoo, the home ticker page shows the market's filings, and Macro carries its cards. With none chosen, the home screens stay global and Watch · Home takes any Yahoo symbol.
