What we cover
Frequently asked questions
What news do day traders use?
Day traders rely on structured, time-stamped newswires that flag priority levels and affected tickers — not general finance websites. A dedicated wire shows halts, FDA approvals, M&A filings, macro beats and earnings misses the moment they are available, before the price has moved. SquawkNews publishes a free, real-time wire with FLASH/URGENT/ROUTINE codes and per-ticker tagging.
How fast is the SquawkNews feed?
SquawkNews publishes breaking headlines within seconds of source confirmation. FLASH items are routed immediately; URGENT items follow as context is confirmed. The wire also reads high-priority headlines aloud via the audio squawk layer, so you hear the news without looking away from a chart.
Is SquawkNews free?
Yes — the full LiveCast news feed, the audio squawk, and market briefs are free. The Terminal view adds keyboard navigation, watchlists and live quote context and is also available at no cost.
Do you cover premarket and after-hours news?
Yes. The wire runs around the clock and covers premarket movers, overnight macro, Asian and European session catalysts, and US after-hours earnings releases. Halts and FDA decisions arrive at any hour and are published immediately.
What is the difference between the news feed and the Terminal?
The LiveCast (/news) is a clean chronological tape designed for watching and listening. The Terminal (/terminal) adds keyboard shortcuts, watchlist filtering, market status, and quote context alongside the same headlines. Both are on the same live pipeline.
Do you cover SEC filings and corporate disclosures?
Yes. The Disclosure Wire (/disclosurewire) ingests 8-K and 6-K filings, EX-99 press releases and their attachments directly from SEC EDGAR. Market-moving items can also surface on the main news tape when assessment rules flag them as high-impact.
