Price: Free, Version: 1.2.1 -> 1.2.2 (iTunes)
Description:24 predefined heat maps of stocks and ETFs totaling 2500+ instruments on just two pages. Unlimited custom watch lists on third page. Each stock or ETF is represented by uniquely colored rock of unique size.
“StocksRock!” is an app which provides the user with an easily understood way to highlight stock market changes by providing a visual presentation of stock market performance through the use of “heat maps” where each stock is represented by a colored “rock”. The rock is colored green if the stock is up from the prior close, or colored red if the stock is down. Up to certain limitations, color intensity increases as the prices change.
As the stock moves higher, the rock gets greener. As the stock moves lower, the rock gets redder.
It’s that simple. However, because of its intuitive visual presentation, the app enables the user to absorb a substantial amount of data, and recognize developing trends. Stock prices are almost real time (1) as characterized by delays of under a minute (2)
