Delayed quotes, CFDs and daily yields: reading the market panels
By AP's Morning Brief · Editor: AP Dult · October 26, 2026
The homepage market panels (Market feed, Quote board, Hotlists, Headlines, Economic calendar and the ticker strip) are free widgets from TradingView. We choose which symbols they show; TradingView supplies the numbers and headlines. Here's what to keep in mind.
Quotes may be delayed
Free widgets don't always carry real-time exchange data. Depending on the market, a quote may be delayed or end-of-day, and widgets mark this with a small "D" or similar flag next to the symbol. TradingView lists the data level for each market in its widget market coverage docs. Your broker's quote is the one that matters for an order.
Why the indexes are shown as CFDs
Real-time feeds for headline indexes such as the S&P 500, Nasdaq-100 and Dow are licensed separately, and they aren't all available in free widgets. Where they aren't, our panels show a CFD (contract for difference) quote that is designed to track the index. A CFD price can differ slightly from the official index level, so treat it as an indication.
The 10-year yield is a daily rate
The 10-year Treasury figure comes from FRED series DGS10, "Market Yield on U.S. Treasury Securities at 10-Year Constant Maturity, Quoted on an Investment Basis". It's published once per business day, so it won't move during the session the way a live bond quote does.
Headlines aren't ours
The Headlines panel is TradingView's news feed. We don't write, edit or fact-check those stories. Our own reporting is in the brief, where every figure links to its source.
The glowing lines are decoration
The animated network and the gold trace near the top of the homepage are decoration. They aren't charts and show no market data.
