Script description

DAX Market for AWTRIX NG

A native AWTRIX NG script that displays the current German DAX index directly on the device. No Home Assistant, Node-RED, MQTT or other external service is required.

  • Current DAX index value
  • Daily change in points
  • Daily percentage change
  • Green ↗ indicator when the DAX is up
  • Red ↘ indicator when the DAX is down
  • White → indicator when unchanged
  • Short DAX intro when the app enters the rotation
  • Configurable market hours
  • Configurable refresh interval
  • Configurable view duration
  • Last successful values are kept if the data source is temporarily unavailable
  • Red status pixel after an extended period without a successful update
  • No network requests outside configured market hours

Data source

Market data is fetched directly from Yahoo Finance using the ^GDAXI symbol.

No API key is required.

The script only extracts the required regularMarketPrice and previousClose values instead of parsing the complete JSON response, keeping memory usage low.

Default schedule

Monday – Friday
09:00 – 18:00

Data refresh: every 5 minutes.

  1. Open the AWTRIX NG web interface.
  2. Go to Scripts.
  3. Create a new script named DAX.
  4. Paste the script and save it.
  5. Configure the app under Apps → DAX → Settings if required.

The script runs completely standalone on AWTRIX NG.
