Whether you are investing in the stock market or simply need to have access to relevant economic news for your business, you surely recognize the importance of up-to-date financial information.

TradeQQ is a real-time news provider application for your Mac that can deliver economic data, relevant stories from governments and central banks, market research and macroeconomic analysis to your desktop.

While it is a powerful tool, its visual design is lacking in some respects, and the Split View function it provides is currently unusable.

Naturally, not every user will be interested in all the financial data provided by TradeQQ. You may only wish to view breaking news, economic signals or info related to various markets.

To help categorize the available information and make it easier to sort through, data is split into multiple tabs.

Assuming you do not wish to open the application's main window and check for new information constantly, you can take advantage of TradeQQ's alert function that displays periodic notifications on your screen.

You can choose which news categories or commodity markets should be taken into consideration, to avoid being overwhelmed by data you are not interested in.

TradeQQ displays relevant news and financial data in such a way that you always have access to the information you need, without having to search for it online on your own.

Unfortunately, it should be noted that the Split View function offered by the application is not available. Also, its visual design appears to be rather outdated and does not integrate very well with the OS X interface.

However, TradeQQ is a reliable source of real-time financial information for individual traders, analysts or financial institutions.
