MtGox Live is a financial information service that provides a real-time visual display of the buy (bid) and sell (ask) orders currently open on MtGox exchange along with real time trades and trade history.
The page requires a browser that supports Websockets[1]. Apple Safari[2] and Google Chrome[3] are two such browsers that support Websockets. Firefox also supports through about:config. The website also works with any ajax browser, including android.
MtGox Live has further grown to provide an Android and iOS application and a bitcoin address shortener service, btc.to. The Bitcoin trading community can chat in the IRC Web #mtgoxlive IRC channel on Freenode.
