Anybody tried sharpreader? http://www.sharpreader.net/screenshots.html Seems to have realtime notification.
I had problems with feedreader, tried the FT software but like www.newzcrawler.com The fetch routine can be set to every minute for the popup window and the window can be resized. The program operation is a lot quicker than feedreader. What are the best sources for RSS news? I am getting reuters, bloomberg, ft and wsj.
My belief is that Marketwatch Real Time headlines is the best pick. If you set the reader to too many sources, then its too much info and most is duplicate. I set mine to Marketwatch Real Time Headlines, set the Yahoo news for the specific stock I am in at the time, and CNN top stories. I also have the television going at any given time so that will cover any large news.
IB has a RSS newsreader in TWS and free Reuters news. http://individuals.interactivebrokers.com/php/webhelp/webhelp.htm#globalConfig/rssConfig.htm
Bernard, are u able to use Reuters RSS outside of TWS? What is the URL that IB uses to connect to Reuters RSS? Thanks
