    Stock ticker for menu bar?

    Hello friends,
    I am stock broker. I have Macbook pro which has Mac OS X installed in it. I am looking for some kind of application that can show all information about stocks. It means it can show more than AAPL and it will be fully customizable. Can anyone tell me is there any Stock ticker for menu bar available? If yes, then give me information about it.
    Thanks in advanced.

    Why don't you use TickerMenu to do this. Use TickerMenu to track stock prices in your OS X menubar. Just specify a trading symbol and TickerMenu will update the quote at the interval you choose.
    It has following features.
    • Build a list of the stocks of interest to you. Choose one and TickerMenu will display a stock quote in your menubar, updating it automatically.
    • The quote is color-coded to reflect daily increases (green) or decreases (red) in price, but you can choose a greyscale appearance if you prefer.

    As per my knowledge you have to use Stock Menulet for your mac. Stock Menulet sits in your menu bar and monitors stock prices. The font color indicates whether a price is increasing (green) or decreasing (red). Any number of stocks can be monitored, and all the prices are displayed together in a drop-down menu with relevant news items. Click the menulet to change the ticker symbol. Check the header to this page for a static shot of Stock Menulet monitoring the Dow Jones Industrial Averag
