 Because only about 40% of news stories on the web have a symbol associated with them, that means 60% percent or more of news stories never made it to Symbol view. Hence, it used to be that there were limited news available in News Reader.

 Now, with the new Continuous View, traders can see 100% percent of the stories that matter to them. Every bit of news that the Refinitiv system generates gets passed right on through to the PPro8 client. We do not process or delete anything from the feed. It’s like having the entire Refinitiv news database at your fingertips. On the PPro8 client side, you can decide what you want to filter to assist you in your trading, and make your trading decisions right away.
