Market Pulse app review and alternative

ALFA Finder vs Market Pulse

Live MCX and NSE prices, charts, option chain and strategy alerts in one app.

Market Pulse, from Market Pulse Technologies, is a trading app for live prices and charts across MCX commodities (gold, silver, crude and the rest) and NSE stocks, futures and options. It has multiple watchlists with a heatmap view, technical indicators and candlestick-pattern highlighting on charts, drawing tools, an option chain with open interest and Greeks, and real-time alerts based on your own trading strategies. Its Play Store listing shows 1M+ downloads and a 4.6 rating from about 89,000 reviews; the app contains ads and offers in-app purchases.

Put simply: Market Pulse tells you what the price and the chart are doing. ALFA Finder tells you what the company just filed with the exchange, the news behind the chart.

Traders who chart on Market Pulse still need something watching the company filings. That is not what a price app is built for.

Beyond filings — what else ALFA Finder tracks

A corporate filing is only one kind of alert. ALFA Finder also watches price and volume behaviour directly, which none of the tools compared on this page publish as a feature:

AlertWhat triggers it
ALFA Alert A stock's intraday move beats the Nifty benchmark by 10% or more — sent independent of your personal watchlist, so you don't miss a mover you weren't already tracking.
All-time-high price breakout A stock crosses a price record that has held for at least two years, with the size of the breakout and how long the old record stood.
All-time-high volume breakout A stock's combined NSE+BSE daily volume sets a new record — often the earliest sign something is changing, before the price catches up.
Post-alert performance follow-up A stock ALFA Finder alerted on gains 10%+ within 2 trading days or 20%+ within a week — so you see which alerts actually mattered, not just the alert itself.

Every alert carries a live company snapshot

Whatever triggered it, an ALFA Finder alert isn't a bare headline. It arrives with Market Cap, Stock P/E against Industry P/E, live price with % move from open, Change over Week/Month/Quarter, Volume Average, and Day RSI with a plain-English band (Overbought, Upward Trending, Downward Trending, Good to Buy) — plus a direct link to the original exchange filing. Every field is documented on the glossary page.

Financial Results and Earnings Call alerts go further than a notification

A Financial Result alert carries a three-period side-by-side table (Total Income, Other Income, Net Profit, Exceptional Income, Profit Before Tax, OPM%), sequential and year-on-year net profit growth, and an Adj. Profit growth figure measured on profit before exceptional items and tax less other income, so a company isn't credited with "growth" that was really a one-time gain or a lower tax rate.

An Earnings Call alert carries the ALFA Reason (the one sentence that made the call alert-worthy), an AI-generated summary of growth drivers, risks and forward guidance, and a 14-point management-commentary checklist — Revenue Growth, Management Confidence, Demand Visibility, Order Book, Margin Trends, Operating Leverage, Pricing Power, Volume vs Price, Segment Growth, New Clients, Capex & Debt, Regulatory, Commentary, New Launches — built from only what management actually addressed on the call, not padded to look complete. A QoQ Comparison link checks the current call against what management promised on the previous one, so you can see what was delivered and what wasn't.

Pricing

Market Pulse is free to download from the Play Store, with ads and in-app purchases for its premium features; check the app for current plan prices.

ALFA Finder starts with a 15-day free trial (20-stock watchlist) followed by tiered plans — ALFA (market-wide outperformance alerts, no personal watchlist needed) up to ALFA PRO MAX (a watchlist covering effectively every listed stock, Telegram delivery, highest alert priority). Higher tiers also unlock bulk watchlist import by CSV and a referral program that pays out real cash via UPI or bank transfer, not just credit. Current pricing and full tier detail is on the plans page.

What ALFA Finder actually sends

Announcements are classified by type before they reach you, so you can follow only the categories you care about rather than the full exchange firehose:

On speed

Announcement alerts are only useful if they arrive before the move. During market hours our median delivery is 5.0 seconds from the filing appearing on the exchange feed to the alert being delivered, with 9 in 10 inside 10.3 seconds. The full measurement, including how we time it and why we do not count from the exchange's own timestamp, is on the alert speed page.

Delivery

Alerts arrive on Telegram rather than in a dashboard you have to remember to open. Getting started doesn't mean adding stocks one at a time either: watchlists can be bulk-imported from a CSV or a pasted symbol list. Every field in an alert is documented, so nothing in a message is unexplained.

Frequently asked questions

Does ALFA Finder replace Market Pulse?

Not necessarily — Market Pulse is built for a different job (live mcx and nse prices, charts, option chain and strategy alerts in one app). ALFA Finder is built for a different one: telling you the moment a company you hold files something, hits an all-time high, or moves enough to beat the market. Most Market Pulse users still need something watching the filings, which is what ALFA Finder does.

Is ALFA Finder free?

New accounts get a 15-day free trial with a 20-stock watchlist. After that ALFA Finder runs on paid plans; there is no permanently free tier for personalised watchlist alerts. This comparison page and the public filing archive at alfafinder.com/market/ are free to browse without a subscription.

How fast are ALFA Finder's alerts compared to Market Pulse?

ALFA Finder's median delivery during market hours is 5.0 seconds from the filing appearing on the exchange feed to the alert being delivered, measured continuously — see the full numbers. That figure isn't published by Market Pulse.

Does ALFA Finder alert on more than just corporate filings?

Yes. Beyond NSE/BSE filings, ALFA Finder also tracks all-time-high price and volume breakouts, alerts when a stock's move beats the Nifty benchmark by 10% or more, and sends a follow-up if a stock it alerted on later gains 10-20%+, so you can see which alerts actually mattered.

Is Market Pulse free?

Market Pulse is free to download and shows ads; premium features are sold as in-app purchases.

Does Market Pulse send corporate announcement alerts?

Its Play Store listing describes live prices, charts, option tools and real-time alerts based on your trading strategies. It does not list NSE or BSE corporate filing alerts, which is the job ALFA Finder does.

Comparison written by ALFA Finder from Market Pulse's own site and app-store listings, facts checked on 7 November 2026. Product details of other tools change often — check their site for current features and pricing. ALFA Finder's own features described above are live in the product, not aspirational.

Get these filings the moment they are published

This page is rebuilt hourly. ALFA Finder members get the same filings pushed to Telegram within seconds of the exchange publishing them, filtered to the stocks they actually hold.
