There are various special types of stock tickers, each one with their own characteristics, but they also share countless 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 scores of different ticker software available for your desktop, so you too can have a tape stock ticker running on your computer. In General desktop stock tickers are pretty 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 notify you if the price of a chosen stock move outside a predefined area or the stock price changes rapidly.

Real Time or Near Real Time?
