The difference between them is that tickrs (Rust) is primarily a graphing program with a very simple portfolio/holdings facility. Average prices have to be manually calculated and only one 'portfolio' can be configured.
productivity/ticker presents numerical data only, for multiple portfolios, and properly tracks different currencies and major/minor pricing like GBP (Pounds)/GBp (Pence), which is needed in some markets. It also handles multiple lots per security and calculates the average cost.
For this reason, I suggest it is worth having both in the ports tree. This port is v5.3.0 which implements the major/minor currency handling.Tested on -current amd64 Build date: 1782425853 - Thu Jun 25 22:17:33 UTC 2026
