TROUBLESHOOTING
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Not displaying?
→ Developer Tools → States → Check sensor value
→ Automations → Find stock automation → Run manually
→ Settings → System → Logs → Look for update messages
Wrong colors?
→ Check price change vs threshold setting
→ Lower threshold for more sensitivity
Text too long?
→ Use short symbols (AAPL not Apple Inc.)
→ Increase scroll speed (150-200)
→ Remove currency symbol
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
PRO TIPS
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
✓ Keep symbols SHORT for 8x32 display
✓ Match threshold to asset volatility
✓ Lifetime = 0 for always visible
