Just in case anyone wants the mini-window version of this tool always floating on top in Windows environment
there is this simple tool "Always Top" which will do that:

Use it all the time, works like a charm. Once you activate the program, just hit control-space bar on the window you always want in the foreground.

Hey Jessi this tool is cool like ice  

I really like the graphic of the Bitcoin logo made into an alarm clock.  Might be fun to have one of those old-style alarm clocks with a Bitcoin logo as the face 

[StewartJ]

Jessi,

After you get some feedback, and make minor changes, if any, I would then re-post an official "announcement" thread, with a proper title this time, something like "Announcing Bitcoin Trading Alarm Tool"

Think a lot of folks on the Speculation Forum board are going to like this.

[StewartJ]

I am actually able to resize the mini-window version, after removing the address bar.  (firefox 5.0, windows 7)

Floating in front of all my BTC data charts. Very cool.

Yeah, this would probably increase your donations.

Hey, very good Idea! I placed it as a hint after the tool itself. Do you have an own project? Then I could place a link for you, too. ;-)

Yes, maybe... let´s see, what is happening during next days. If more like this tools and if more have suggestions what I could improve and all (maybe) bugs are fixed, then I´ll decide if it is worth...

[StewartJ]

I could really see this as an all inclusive Price Ticker AND Alarm tool in future versions.

Yes, this way it should work and that way I used it, too, during last nights.

No link necessary for me. This tool is my gift.

I've been verifying the data from other chart tools, and so far it is refrehsing the correct Buy, Last,and Sell prices.

Good job.

[StewartJ]

this tools is awesome i got something similar on sierra  

Sierra has alarms too, but what I like about Jessi's is that it's browser based, has mini window option, and easy to use/setup.

I noticed that Sierra has alarms, but I did not use it, yet, because what I needed was a tool which keeps a low load on my cpu, because sometimes I have to work on other things and sierra is too big for such little things what I am doing with bitcoin-trading. Also I don´t want to install sierra on all my systems.
Anyway I am sure, that there are some other tools around, which could also do the same, but as I liked to do an own solution, I did not search for those, yet.

Thanks. I did compare it during last two days, too and did not find major differences. Some times it is a bit slower, than the price inside Mt.Gox itself, sometimes a bit different to Mt.Gox live (even if I take the data from Mt.Gox-Ticker). I guess this behavior is because of the caching. Anyway it always informed me fast enough and during last two night I was able to make a few BTCs by trading fast enough.

Sierra has alarms too, but what I like about Jessi's is that it's browser based, has mini window option, and easy to use/setup.

To set it up very easy, was most important for me, too. Because sometimes you have to react fast and if you are during other work and don´t have much time, it´s nice to change one number only and you´ll keep informed.

[StewartJ]

If you maximize the mini-window (double click window bar) it so nicely fills the screen.

A great visual Bitcoin Ticker/Alarm, when I'm further away from the laptop.

brilliant, donating tomorrow

I like the bull & bear sounds but it would be cool if one could customise or at least have options for a few others that were more subtile in case those become a bit too much when one has alarms set very close to the last price that go off a lot, many thanks for this app Jessi

Thank you very much!

This is a good Idea. I´ll see what I can do, about the Sounds. I liked the bull-sound, but the bear isn´t good like I want, but I did not find a better one.
Anyway, this could be a good Idea to choose for each alarm a sound. Maybe by a drop down under each field? This could contain other alarms and also a Version where it only gives optical alarm like flashing or something else...
