Watchlist import feature of tv.dhan.co need improvement

I am facing two issues when importing a watchlist on the Dhan TradingView platform (tv.dhan.co).

1. Watchlist gets automatically sorted alphabetically

When I import a watchlist on tv.dhan.co, the stocks are automatically rearranged in alphabetical order.

I want the stocks to remain in the exact same order as they appear in my imported list.

For example, if my imported list is:

  1. Zomato
  2. Reliance
  3. Tata Motors
  4. HDFC Bank

The watchlist should remain in this exact order instead of automatically changing to alphabetical order.

However, this issue does not occur when I import the same watchlist on web.dhan.co. There, the order of the imported list is maintained correctly.

2. Watchlist jumps back to the first stock while scrolling

There is also another issue on tv.dhan.co.

After importing the watchlist, when I scroll down through the stocks, the watchlist sometimes automatically jumps back to the first stock instead of staying at the position where I was scrolling.

This makes it very difficult to go through a large watchlist.

Again, this issue does not occur when the same watchlist is imported on web.dhan.co. It only happens on the Dhan TradingView platform.

Request

Could you please investigate these two issues specifically on tv.dhan.co and fix them?

The expected behavior should be:

  • Imported watchlist should retain the exact order of the imported list.
  • Scrolling through a large watchlist should not jump back to the first stock.
  • The behavior should ideally be consistent with web.dhan.co, where both of these issues do not occur.

Please make Watchlist Import more easily accessible

Currently, the Import Watchlist option is located inside the Settings/menu, which requires around 4 clicks to reach.

Would it be possible to move the Import Watchlist option outside of Settings and place it directly on the watchlist interface or in a more easily accessible location?

This would be very useful for users who frequently generate watchlists from scanners and then import them into Dhan TradingView.

My workflow is basically:

Scanner → Generate/Copy Stock List → Import into Dhan TradingView

For this type of workflow, having a direct Import Watchlist button would make the process much faster and more convenient.

Hey @AkshayN ,

We have your feedback on the imported Watchlist remaining as it is instead of rearranging, and also on making it easily accessible.

Do help us with a screen recording so we can review the scrolling scenario.

Hi @AkshayN

Thanks for raising these issues. These issues are as old as Dhan itself! Had reported them multiple times via threads, emails etc., even had video meetings with the team but these remained unresolved.

I am hoping, at least, you get lucky :grinning_face:

Thanks again!

Hey @AkshayN ,

As discussed, the current behaviour is working as, post adding drawings to a stock’s chart, pressing the space bar moves you to the next stock in your watchlist and opens its chart.

Are you working on changing the auto-sort feature so that the watchlist remains in the same order as it was imported?

Hi @AkshayN,

We’ve your feedback on retaining the same sequence for imported watchlist.
