What's New

Everything we have shipped since launch — the desktop app, and the data feed behind it. Desktop updates install automatically through the in-app updater, free with your subscription.

Data Feed API

The feed, straight into your own systems

The same millisecond feed the desktop app runs on, as a raw WebSocket stream. For desks that already have their own execution.

  • Every release, every source
    One stream, the full catalogue: BLS, BEA, EIA, DOL, USDA and UMich.
  • Scraped, not resold
    The numbers come from the source itself, not resold from another feed.
  • Measure your own latency
    Server-time and ping endpoints track your clock offset and round trip.
  • Start from working code
    Complete clients in Python, Go, C++ and JavaScript, reconnect loop included.
  • Issued directly to you
    Access is by arrangement. Your own key, your own connections.

Desktop app releases

Current version: 1.6.1
v1.6.1Latest

A sharper logo

The app now carries the same MacroPulse mark as the website, drawn as a vector so it stays sharp however far you zoom in.

  • The new mark, everywhere
    The sign-in screen and the main window header both show the full MacroPulse logo, matching the website exactly. Nothing about how the app works has changed.
  • Sharp at any zoom
    The logo is now drawn fresh at whatever size it appears, so it stays crisp when you scale the interface up rather than going soft at the edges.
v1.6.0

PCE and GDP join the feed

Two of the biggest numbers in the calendar are now covered: the inflation measure the Fed watches most closely, and the headline growth figure. Both land on the desktop app and the data feed.

New events
  • Core PCENew
    The inflation number the Fed pays most attention to. You get six figures from the one release — PCE and Core PCE, monthly and annual, plus personal income and consumer spending — and they all arrive together.
  • GDP, all three readings
    Every quarter's growth figure is published three times as it gets revised: a first estimate, a second, and a final. Each one reaches you as its own event, on its own date.
  • A sixth source
    These come from the Bureau of Economic Analysis, joining the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the EIA, the Labor Department, the USDA and the University of Michigan. Scraped straight from the source, like everything else.
Speed
  • Stays quick on a busy computerImproved
    MacroPulse now asks Windows and macOS to treat it as a priority, so other programs running at the same time cannot slow it down at the moment data lands. Nothing to turn on, no admin password, and your power and sleep settings are left exactly as they were.
v1.5.0

Runs on Windows Server

MacroPulse now runs on Windows Server and Remote Desktop machines with no graphics card, and the app fits itself to whatever screen it's on.

  • Windows Server 2016 and 2019 supportNew
    Server and Remote Desktop machines without GPU graphics previously launched to a blank screen. The installer now checks the machine's graphics capability and switches on a built-in software renderer when there's no hardware support — no settings, no separate download.
  • Fits your screenImproved
    On smaller displays the app scales its layout down so every column is visible and the window never opens larger than the screen. You can also resize the window smaller than before — the events table scrolls sideways when space runs out.
v1.4.7

A clean board each morning

Your triggers now clear overnight, and finished ones stay out of the way of the ones still running.

  • Triggers clear overnightImproved
    Your board resets at midnight instead of trailing a rolling 24 hours, so every session starts with today's events and nothing else. Yesterday's rows clear within seconds of opening the app.
  • Finished triggers move aside
    Executed and skipped triggers now sit below the ones still waiting, instead of above them. Today's results stay on the board as a record until midnight — just no longer in front of the trigger you're watching.
v1.4.0

Read the market at a glance

The events table now colour-codes beats, misses and impact as data lands.

  • Instant beats and missesNew feature
    The Deviation column shows the size of the surprise, green for a beat, red for a miss.
  • Impact at a glance
    High-impact events in red, medium in amber, low in green.
  • Health dots
    Live status dots on the connection and clock readouts: green healthy, amber connecting, red needs attention.
  • Straight to your journal
    Right-click any event to copy the full row, with or without headers. Pastes straight into Excel or Google Sheets.
v1.3.0

Smarter triggers, bulletproof timing

Two completely new trigger types.

  • AND triggersNew trigger type
    Combine conditions across releases that drop together. The click fires only when every condition is met: buy only if crude draws AND gasoline draws.
  • SUM triggersNew trigger type
    One threshold against the combined figure of related releases, like total petroleum inventories across crude, gasoline and distillates.
  • Trade any surprise
    The new Not-Equals condition fires on any deviation from forecast, in either direction.
v1.2.0

You set the terms

Control over when the click fires.

  • Fade the spikeNew feature
    Fire up to 60 seconds after the release instead of instantly, precise to a tenth of a second. Built to trade the fade.
  • Your screen, your size
    Zoom the whole interface from 50% to 150% with Cmd/Ctrl +/-.
  • World clocks
    AMER, EMEA and APAC clocks in the footer.
v1.1.0

See everything

Live latency, trigger countdowns and desktop alerts.

  • Know your speedNew feature
    A live latency to MacroPulse servers in the footer, and every number stamped with its arrival time to the millisecond.
  • Live countdowns
    Every armed trigger counts down in seconds to its event in real time.
  • Nothing fails silently
    If your trading platform closes or its window moves before an event, the trigger flags red with a desktop alert.
