Conference Categories | Apps Conference | Stock Tickers Topics Stock Tickers comprise a group of apps that display stock quotes on your desktop screen. Apps like Quote Ticker Bar use the standard stock ticker bar (similar to Internet Explorer's moving banner capability) to continually update the current prices (with a 15-minute delay at least) for your favorite stocks, while apps like WinStock provide a more tabular format for listing the stocks of your choice. In addition to providing the latest information on each stock (including volume traded, daily and yearly high/lows, % change, etc.), some apps provide portfolio management capabilities, support for domestic and foreign stocks, and additional cool features. Apps like WinStock also go a step beyond the stock ticker category by offering support for additional investments, including mutual funds, bonds, and money market mutual funds. If stocks or mutual funds are a significant part of your daily routine, then there is bound to be an app in this section that will satisfy your wildest dreams. Bon appetit. The following are brief descriptions of each application featured on the Stock Tickers Page. reviewed by Forrest Stroud
