Do You Gamble To Be On The Stock Market?

By Felix B. Hardy

Free Stock tickers are everywhere you look! You view them in the Finance Section of every single major broadcasting networks, placed in the bottom or top of the screen. Each on line stock trading company has one. The advantage of stock tickers are that you get a fast overview of stock prices in a particularly intuitive fashion. And you can without problems get your own customized real time stock ticker.

There are scores of different kinds of stock tickers, all with their own characteristics, but they also share various characteristics. The most general features are the company symbol, the value of the company's shares, and the direction in which the stock price is moving.

As mentioned, there are a lot of special ticker software available for your desktop, so you too can have a tape stock ticker running on your computer. Most desktop stock tickers are reasonably diminutive programs, that does not use a lot of RAM or CPU, so you can continue your work. Often the stock tickers can be configured to alarm you if the price of a chosen stock move outside a predefined area or the stock price changes speedily. The desktop stock ticker can be downloaded from many of the online stock trading companies. Since the tickers often are very small programs, the download and installation is rapid and easy done.

Real Time or Near Real Time?

Most free desktop stock tickers displays the stock prices in "near real-time", meaning that the prices are delayed " quite often 15 to 20 minutes. If you are a customer with an online stock trading company however, you can frequently get real-time prices - this is evidently a huge advantage, especially if you are a day trader, who buys and sells often the same shares though out the day. In this case you must know the exact price, since you make your money on very diminutive movements. If you are a long term investor the delayed prices are of less importance. - 23223
