What is a Stock Ticker? Definition, How it Works, and Origins

A stock ticker is a tool that shows the price of certain stocks, updated continuously during the trading day by stock market exchanges.

A “tick” is any change in the stock’s price, whether it goes up or down. A stock ticker automatically shows these changes, along with other useful information like how much of the stock is being traded. This helps investors and traders keep up with the market and see how popular a particular stock is.

Key Points

A stock ticker updates the transaction and price data for a stock throughout the day.

It usually shows the most active or newsworthy stocks.

The ticker shows the stock symbol, price change, percentage change from the last session, and trading volume.

Information is often color-coded: green for price increases, red for decreases, and gray or tan for no change.
