Do You Have The Courage To Buy Stocks?

By Felix B. Hardy

Free Stock tickers are everywhere! You see them in the Finance Section of all primary broadcasting networks, running in the top or bottom of the screen. All on line stock trading company has one. The main benefit of stock tickers are that you get a nippy summary of share prices in a truly intuitive manner. And you can without problems get your own customized real time stock ticker.

There are various special forms of stock tickers, each one with their own characteristics, but they also share loads of features. The most frequent 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 different ticker software available for your desktop, so you too can have a tape stock ticker running on your computer. Most desktop stock tickers are rather diminutive applications, 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 fast. The desktop stock ticker can be downloaded from several of the online stock trading companies. Since the tickers often are very tiny programs, the download and installation is fast and easy done.

Real Time or Near Real Time?

Almost every free desktop stock tickers displays the stock prices in "near real-time", meaning that the prices are postponed " most often 15 to 20 minutes. If you are a customer with an online stock trading company however, you can typically get real-time prices - this is clearly a huge plus, 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 little movements. If you are a long term investor the delayed prices are of less importance. - 23208
