StockTray is a program that obtains stock quotes from free sources on the internet and displays them in a compact form on your desktop. You can use it to monitor stock prices that you are interested in and even monitor the value of your portfolio in real time.

StockTray allows timed updating of stock quotes (the times and frequency of the updates are customizable) and will notify you if the price of a stock moves above or below a predefined target price.

It also supports charts: If you request a chart it will start your web browser and display the chart from the internet source that you selected to provide the data.

By organizing the data in user configurable sections you can maintain a watchlist, multiple portfolios, or other kind of organization you prefer, eg. current stocks, sold stocks, stocks sold last year, etc.
