How to look up a stock

From search to each tab on a stock page: what each tab shows and where the data comes from.

Updated：2026-11-11

Find the stock

Type a code or name in the search box on the home page or the Stocks page (a partial match works, for example 2330 or part of a name). Focusing the box shows “Popular” (the top 10 by today’s traded value, a ranking only, not a recommendation) and “Recently viewed” (stored only in your browser).

The eight tabs on a stock page

• Chart: candlesticks (daily, weekly, monthly) and volume, with optional moving averages. Visitors see about the last 10 years; once signed in you see everything in the database (from 2004), and dragging to the oldest bar loads earlier data automatically. On a phone or tablet a one-finger sideways drag pans, vertical swipes still scroll the page, and pinching with two fingers zooms the time range.
• Technical: indicators (MA, MACD, KD, RSI, Bollinger Bands and more) linked with the chart. Press and hold to show a crosshair; every chart moves to the same day.
• Chips: institutional buying and selling, margin and short balances, securities lending, TDCC shareholding distribution, insider holdings and more.
• Financials: quarterly revenue, profit, balance sheet and cash flow charts, switchable between quarterly and cumulative; pressing and holding moves the crosshair on every chart to the same quarter and shows that quarter’s values in each chart title.
• Industry: comparison with stocks in the same industry.
• News: the company’s material announcements and related news headlines.
• Basic: company profile, dividends, ex-dividend history and valuation history (signed in, you can page through the full history, 30 rows per page).
• Alerts (signed in): set price or chips alerts for this stock.

Sources and dates

Quotes and chips come from TWSE and TPEx end-of-day data. Financials, monthly revenue, announcements and dividends come from the Market Observation Post System (MOPS). Shareholding distribution comes from TDCC. Every page shows its data date. Data may be late or wrong; the official announcements prevail.

Tips

• Charts and indicators show raw prices by default; after signing in you can tick “Adjusted” so historical returns are not distorted by ex-dividend gaps; see “What is ex-dividend, and what adjusted prices mean”.
• On a stock page, the previous/next buttons move through your watchlist (signed in).
• Signed in, your choices on a stock page are remembered: the current tab, chart period, quarterly or cumulative in financials, the number of days in chips and more, on any device you sign in from (the current tab and industry sorting are remembered on this device only).
