You can add a symbol(s) and/or source code(s) to the News Monitor to display all corresponding news stories.

Select the News Monitor icon
from the REDIPlus Application bar, and the News Monitor appears.
Use one of the methods below to add a symbol(s)/source code(s); an overview of symbol entry methodologies can be found in the Symbols, Symbols, Symbols topic.

Symbol Search
topic more information about the Symbol Search functionality.

Symbols/source codes added to the Watch List will be replaced by any symbol /source code subsequently entered in the Symbol drop-down list box.
Click the drop-down arrow 
on the

Type a symbol/source code in the Enter Symbol field and click [Add]. Repeat this process to add additional symbols and/or source codes; when finished, click [OK].
Symbols/source codes added to the REDI Symbols List dialog box remain available as long as you are in REDIPlus, and can be saved as part of your Workspace; see the Working with Workspaces topic for more information.
The method you use to remove a symbol/source code from the News Monitor depends on whether you are viewing news corresponding to a single or multiple symbol(s)/source code(s), and in the case of multiple symbols/source codes, whether you want to retain any of them.

codes by selecting one from the Symbol drop-down list box. Click the drop-down
arrow on the right of the Symbol drop-down list box, and
select a symbol/source code.
You can clear the Headlines and the Full Story panes, and remove a symbol/source code from the Symbol drop-down list. Simply highlight the symbol/source code in the Symbol drop-down list box, and press [Delete].
You can remove individual
symbols and/or source codes from the News Monitor (i.e., you can remove
a symbol/source code without eliminating others that you want to retain),
or you can remove all symbols/source codes on the Watch tab.
Click the Properties button on the Toolbar OR
right-click the News Monitor and select Properties from the shortcut menu, and
the Properties dialog box’s Watch tab

step. When finished, click [OK].
