A Live Stock Market Channel for Your TV

A business news channel shows the market its producers picked. The Stream in MarketCast is a market channel built around your stocks instead. It plays on its own all day, scene after scene, with a ticker tape running along the bottom.

What plays on the Stream

• Your stocks, with today's move and a trend line for each.
• The major indexes, so you know what kind of day it is in one glance.
• Market movers: the day's biggest gainers and losers.
• Price charts and business headlines.
• A ticker tape along the bottom of every scene, with forex in the free app.

Premium adds more scenes to the rotation, including the Stock Wall with all 500 S&P 500 stocks at once, Market Desk, crypto around the clock and a daily brief on your stocks.

A channel you program yourself

With Premium you can customize the Stream: choose which scenes play and how long each one stays on screen, and change what runs on the ticker tape. Set it once and the TV plays your version of the market every day.

How it compares to a business news channel

• A news channel is good for interviews and commentary. It covers the stocks it chooses, and your holdings may never come up.
• The Stream has no anchors and no schedule. It keeps coming back to your stocks, and it is readable from across the room with the sound off.

Plenty of people run both: the news channel when something big is happening, the Stream the rest of the day.

Free and Premium

The Stream is in the free app, supported by commercials and sponsors. Premium removes the commercials and adds real-time stock prices, the premium scenes and the controls to customize the Stream. See the plans page for the full list.
