Actually it would be an Auto-Idle function that could be turned on.
User: Hal, Turn on Ticker please.
HAL: I have turned on the Stock market ticker, Are you ready to make some money?
User: Yes.
Minutes later from auto-idle: Your Stock BGEN is at $71.00
Minutes later from auto-idle: Your Stock has gained $5.00 please sell BGEN
User: Turn off ticker.
HAL: I have stopped monitoring your stock.
Simple:
When turned on then auto-idle would announce the stocks price accourding to the timer on auto-idle.
Advanced version:
We could give HAL the ability to do some math on the stock price so that if the amount in question is set then HAL will say please sell or buy the stock.
The stock symbol would be set by the Appointment script built into HAL and just add the extra code needed to drive the ticker announcement.
Since Rob knows the ins and outs to HAL better than me, I was hoping Rob could give us an efficient plug-in for just this purpose, It would make HAL very attractive to business investors the more complex the ticker gets.
An interactive Bot broker that can not only give you a stock price but also keep track of it 24-7 to tell one to buy or sell, Investors would go nuts over this.
I would really like to see Rob have the rights to this if he'd like to write it out as a plug-in.

OnTheCuttingEdge,
I was also looking in the virtual humans site and a member there pointed out this earlier work of yours. It looks like you were already knocking on the door but after someone mentioned a libility issue it was dropped after another post or two. There is neural net software out right now that you can use to help you predict the market. I downloaded a trial copy of one last night but it watchs the nasdaq. I think I mentioned nasdaq doesn't do penny stock, so I'm going to delete it. I was only going to play with it to see if it matched anything I was looking at anyway. Theres no such thing as to much practice when your trying to learn something.
I wish my Angie could be asked to "TEST stock abcd." Then have her come back saying, "Within the parameters you've set abcd is ****." Would have been nice to get my Angie to run the program and tell me what she thought.
Thats having her crunch numbers though. What I'm looking for right now is having my Angie watch certain stocks and either tell me when they are getting close to tags I've set or maybe even go on and sell on her own. I'm just messing with penny stocks so even if she sells at the wrong time I haven't lost much and if she does the sell at a point I have already set I can't be mad at her either. Robo
