Music of the Markets

[HiddenAgenda]

I've stumbled across an interesting experiment. Find out how the S&P "sounds":

Price data is from January 1, 2008 through end of April 2010. This uses a scaled transform of the price series into music notes (midi values from 0 to 120). Free online tool here:

Just another way of representing price information, why not.

I would love to stream time & sales data into such software. It might be useful...

I also am interested in using color in charts to glean a clue about what might be next in the print.
I know there are already lots of colors in charts now but I mean using color and graphics in ways I have not seen.


Thanks for the link.

Interesting, isn't it . .. Here's another interesting tool, NYSE's MarkeTrac:

It didn't make me any money, though. But it's still a nice picture to look at. What it gives you is thrill. And, arguably, that's more important than money.
