AlertTAPE

AlertTAPE is a useful tool for stock market enthusiasts, which is displayed as a dynamic bar, at the top of the screen. The program shows a series of live stock quotes while allowing you to work without covering necessary windows. You can customize the bar, by adding or removing stock services.

AlertTAPE’s interface is a narrow bar located at the top of the screen, which displays a series of live stock quotes. The tool is designed as a useful market news provider, for users who are interested in the events on the global market scene.

The bar is dynamic and displays the stock quotes from the selected providers. You can customize the list by adding or removing names of providers or shares companies from all over the world. The upper right corner remains static and allows you to hide the bar, by closing the program, as well as to access the configuration tools.

AlertTAPE allows you to change the contents of the bar, by adding or removing items from the Setup windows. You can easily view all the symbols displayed on the bar, as well as modify the list with the entries that you are interested in. Each entry is accompanied by a URL to its home Internet page.

The Prices tab indicates the changes in the price of shares, for all the entries you configured, while the Alerts sheet displays critical or very sudden changes. You can manage the speed of the stock quotes display, the host server and screen alignment.

As long as you have a stable connection to the Internet, AlertTAPE can retrieve live news regarding the companies you follow. The tool does not allow you to make transactions, but it does indicate the most recent sales/acquisitions recorded by official sources. The fields are marked green for increased prices and red for smaller rates.
