Before this function, Trading View, which generates charts of market prices, provided Twitter users with access to real-time trading data. Only select firms like Tesla TSLA, +2.97%, which is also run by Twitter CEO Elon Musk, and certain assets like the S&P 500 stock index were accessible to customers using this service.
