Choose how you listen
One live desk. Three ways to listen.
Run DESK for an active session, drop to QUIET when you only want the big calls, or choose SQUAWK 3+ to hear every enabled Impact 3–5 headline as it lands.
Critical alerts only
Breaking news, major economic releases and urgent corrections. Best when you need the desk quiet.
Active trader coverage
Breaking news plus market digests, index futures, FX, oil, regional closes and notable stock updates.
Impact 3–5 headlines
Hear every enabled Impact 3–5 LiveCast headline once, in feed order, through five rotating AI voices. Join live — no backlog replay.
Built around your workflow.
Subscribers can request a tailored mix of markets, instruments, topics and Impact levels. We configure the news filters and spoken coverage around your needs at no additional cost.
QUIET and DESK keep their existing broadcast coverage. SQUAWK 3+ reads every enabled Impact 3–5 headline in feed order. Switch whenever you like. LiveCast isn't nonstop chatter. QUIET waits for critical alerts, while DESK adds the market updates an active trader is most likely to need.
The sound of a live desk
Trade your own book — just not in an empty room.
Five rotating AI voices bring the rhythm of a market desk into the room — calling out headlines and keeping the session moving. You're still the trader — the room just isn't empty anymore.
AI voices, clearly labeled. Every spoken update matches a headline you can read on screen.

Built for the live-news job
Less system. More signal.
Institutional terminals do almost everything. SquawkNews stays focused on one job: helping an active trader hear the headline, catch the catalyst and get back to the market.
| Information source | Designed for | During a fast market |
|---|---|---|
| Social feeds | Open conversation and discovery | Rumors, reposts and irrelevant alerts compete for attention. |
| General financial sites | Articles, browsing and broad context | Useful for reading, but not designed as a persistent live squawk. |
| Broad institutional terminals | Data, research, analytics, collaboration and execution | Powerful depth across many workflows; more system than many independent traders need for live news alone. |
| SquawkNews LiveCast | Focused real-time market news in text and audio | Priority headlines stay beside charts and execution, with ticker and market context one click away. |
Common questions
Straight answers.
Why put LiveCast next to my charts?
Because the market rarely waits while you hunt for the story. LiveCast reads out priority headlines and keeps the text, ticker and source close by, so you can stay with the trade.
Is SquawkNews an alternative to Bloomberg Terminal or LSEG Workspace?
For direct real-time news delivery, yes: our Institutional API is a real alternative to a terminal-based news workflow. It does not replace those platforms' broader data, trading or analytics functions.
What do the LiveCast plans include?
Every LiveCast plan includes live news and audio plus Charts & News without the additional public 15-minute delay. Chart candles remain shared snapshots, not tick-by-tick streaming. Choose a one-time $15 three-day pass, a $35 seven-day pass, or $90 access that renews every 30 days. Existing subscribers keep their current price.
Who is LiveCast for?

Who reads the headlines?
Five rotating AI voices, tuned for clear market audio. Every spoken update matches a published text headline, so you can always see what you heard.
What stays free?

Is there a delayed or trial feed?
LiveCast is the paid live-news and audio service. Free chart candles and ticker news are delayed by at least 15 minutes; public research tools remain useful without live access.
