voice alerts

[nalgrim]

I wrote a program i'm calling FXVoice for voice alerts. I use it when I can't be by the computer but want streaming realtime quotes at certain intervals. So I made a program that does this in intervals of anywhere between 30 seconds and 30 minutes. You can also choose between male and female voices and 32 currency pairs. Hopefully we'll all get away from chart-flipping and get some other work done....

You can download this prog at my website here. Give me some feedback on it on this forum or email me directly.

Get a long speaker cord and put it out by the pool...

Good job Andrew. The possibilities are limitless.

I had a few bad links on my website regarding the forex voice realtime quote software fxvoice. They're fixed now, so if anyone wanted to download it should work now.

Might be interesting, can I ask a few questions here?

Can it be used to set price alerts? I expect even the 'soothing' voices of Mike or Mary could begin to grate after a few hours of constantly churning out price changes, and that extension speaker would probably end up in the pool and not by it!

What is the source of the feed, or is it linked to a traders existing platform?

Is there a software preview anywhere? Screenshots? Trial? Refund if not blissfully happy?

How about a free or discounted 'exquisite painted bottle, painted from the inside'?

I wish my forex broker gave me a refund for when their server wasn't down or the planets weren't aligned right or I wasn't feeling glum that day...

There's a screenshot available on the website (here) and currently there isn't any alert function , although that's a great idea and I'll probably put it into the next version. You can set the quote interval to a longer period of time, say 30 minutes and it shouldn't grate

I don't do trials or shareware as these are utilities I essentially made for my own use...

inside painted bottles are quite nice by the way

I added a couple of features yesterday:

1. Now you can get multiple currency pairs 'spoken' or quoted simultaneously. 32 Pairs are available and of course, if you select all of them, it'll take some time for the TTS engine to read, but it's now possible!

2. I added the ability to add custom alarms for any of the 32 currency pairs. You can set alarms for above a certain price (greater than..) , below a price (less than) and when it hits a certain price (equals to). This is helpful when you only want to hear quotes when you are in a certain profit or loss range, or just when price has reached a certain level. You can run the alarms at the same time as the normal live feed.

I also have a free data feed available for programmers or clients looking for custom software, particularly automated trading systems.
