About Stock Ticker Bar

Stock Ticker Bar is a slim, always-on-top ticker that keeps your stocks visible at a glance, without hijacking your entire screen or forcing you to live inside a trading terminal. Instead of juggling between charts, broker tabs and work apps, you get a clean scrolling bar that quietly displays your watchlist or portfolio across the top (or bottom) of your desktop. Check prices, moves and basic info in your peripheral vision, then get back to what you were doing. What it does Shows a continuous scrolling ticker of your chosen symbols Keeps the bar always on top of other windows so quotes are always visible Lets you build your own lists: watchlists, current positions, “lottery tickets”, etc. Updates prices live so you see moves as they happen, not every time you alt-tab Stays minimal and unobtrusive so it doesn’t feel like another full-blown platform You decide what tickers you want to follow; Stock Ticker Bar simply makes sure they’re always in sight. Who it’s for Day traders and scalpers who need to keep one eye on the tape while using other tools Options traders who track specific underlyings and key levels all day long Swing and long-term investors who want a gentle, ever-present pulse on their portfolio Finance nerds / market junkies who like having the market running across their screen like a news channel, but cleaner If you’ve ever found yourself constantly alt-tabbing just to check “where’s SPX now?” or “did that stock finally break that level?”, this is built for you. What’s novel about it Most market tools assume you’re willing to live inside their platform. Stock Ticker Bar takes the opposite approach: It’s designed to be transparent and out of the way, not another dashboard screaming for attention. It turns your market view into a thin, glanceable overlay, more like a subtle HUD than an app. It focuses on one job and doing it well: show you the prices you care about, all the time, without friction. No bloated menus, no 15 different panels, no “social feed” you didn’t ask for — just your tickers, updating live, in a clean strip you can forget about until you need it. Why you might actually use it You’re working, gaming, or browsing, and want markets in your periphery, not in a full window. You like the idea of a desk ticker or financial news channel crawl, but want your symbols, not someone else’s. You’re tired of missing moves because your broker tab is buried under 15 other things. Set it up once with your favorite tickers, let it run, and you’ll always have a quiet, live read on the market — without changing how you use your computer.

Thank you! As of right now it only shows the tickers and their prices in a scrolling strip. We might implement charts as well in the future, but as of right we don't have those features.
