v0.3.1

Highlights

  • Currency indices supported — DXY, EXY, JXY, BXY, CXY,
    AXY, SXY, ZXY and all their common aliases (USDX,
    USDOLLAR, EURINDEX, JPYX, …) now classify as proper currency
    indices and pull events for the right base currency. TVC:DXY no
    longer falls through to the generic USD stock branch.
  • Wider index / commodity coverage — VXX, MOVE, BEL20, TOPIX,
    FTSE250, HSCEI, HSTECH, SSEC, SZSC, IBX35, CH20, EUSTX50, US100,
    DJIA and extra commodity aliases (GLD, SLV, GC, SI, PL, PA, XCU,
    RB, HO, NGAS, CRUDE).
  • Codebase optimization pass — DOM ref cache for the hot render
    paths, drag/resize collapsed into a single rAF-throttled helper,
    regexes hoisted to module scope, COMMODITY keys pre-sorted, named
    constants instead of inline magic numbers. The popup renders the
    same UI with measurably less churn per frame.

v0.3.0
f1900bd

First public release of NewsAnchor — a floating, draggable popup that
overlays TradingView with the upcoming Forex Factory economic events
for whatever symbol is on screen.

What's in 0.3.0

  • Asset-aware filtering — forex pairs, indices, commodities, crypto
    and stocks all map to the right Forex Factory country codes.
  • Live ticker tracking — patched history methods + title observer +
    legend MutationObserver + 1 Hz fallback; works with TradingView's
    watchlist switching too.
  • Hover-revealed chrome — gear, refresh and close icons fade in only
    on popup hover, so the resting state is just data. Top padding
    collapsed entirely; the icons overlay text when needed.
  • Today, distinct — full-bleed blue card with a solid left accent
    bar makes today's events unmistakable.
  • Real settings panel — impact filter pills (High/Medium/Low/
    Holiday), text size (S/M/L) and an opacity slider (40–100 %), all
    persisted.
  • Embedded Inter typography for consistent rendering across OSes
    (~44 KB).
  • English UI by default, with timestamps and dates forced to en-US /
    en-GB so the popup looks identical regardless of the browser locale.
  • Cooldown-aware refresh — 30 s post-fetch cooldown returns cached
    data with a soft toast rather than re-hitting the CDN.
  • Click-through to source — every event row is an <a> to its
    Forex Factory page.

Install

  1. Download newsanchor-v0.3.0.zip below.
  2. Unzip the archive.
  3. Open chrome://extensions/ → toggle Developer mode → click
    Load unpacked → pick the unzipped folder.

The same archive is what gets uploaded to the Chrome Web Store
developer console.
