1. 01

   Senntric

   Squawk + context

   Best for: Active stock traders who want to hear the headline and see how price, positioning and the session are reacting.

   Senntric reads market news, earnings and economic releases and your own alerts aloud, then puts them next to the chart. Smart Feed and Active Events carry the headline and the event (actual against estimate for CPI, payrolls or an earnings report), and the Situation Awareness Engine writes what changed in one line across price, news, options and flows. GEX levels for SPY, QQQ and S&P 500 stocks sit in the same workspace. One plan, $99/month.

   Strengths

   • News, squawk, events, alerts, charts and GEX together
   • One flat price with nothing locked to a higher tier
   • Price reaction shown next to the headline

   Trade-offs

   • AI voice, not a human analyst desk
   • Built for US stocks and macro, not a 24-hour FX desk

   Newsquawk

   Closest like-for-like

   Best for: Macro, FX, rates and commodity traders who want analysts calling headlines as they break.

   Newsquawk is the nearest match to TTN’s analyst model and publishes its prices. Basic (£175 a month ex VAT) gives one squawk channel (Forex, Energy or Metals) with headlines, research and the economic calendar. Pro (£350) unlocks all six channels, including Multi-Asset Global Macro, Equities and Fixed Income, and adds option activity and block trades.

   Strengths

   • Professional human squawk
   • Deep macro and cross-asset coverage
   • Prices are public

   Trade-offs

   • Multi-asset audio needs Pro
   • Charts and positioning live in another tool

   LLivesquawk

   24-hour human desk

   Best for: Futures and macro traders who want a round-the-clock human desk.

   Livesquawk runs a 24-hour human squawk for macro and futures traders. Its listed price was $350 (£275) a month or $3,850 (£3,025) a year at our October check, with a free trial that needs no card.

   Strengths

   • 24-hour coverage like TTN
   • Free trial without a card

   Trade-offs

   • Priced like an institutional service
   • Stock-specific context is limited

   Benzinga Pro

   US-equity news

   Best for: US stock traders who want a fast equity newsfeed, movers and scanners.

   Benzinga Pro Basic ($37 a month) covers the newsfeed, movers and watchlist alerts. Audio squawk starts on Streamlined ($147), and the real-time scanner, signals and events calendar come with Essential ($197). Annual billing lowers the rate, and the 14-day trial converts to Essential.

   Strengths

   • Fast US-equity headlines
   • Low-cost entry plan
   • Mature scanner on Essential

   Trade-offs

   • Squawk and scanner sit on higher tiers
   • Equity-centric, light on FX and rates
