Is there an app to get an always-on screen that will display said stock prices?

I find that my screen doesn't dim enough when I'm in a dark room. I've obviously taken manual control over brightness. I k ow its possible for the screen to to dimmer because my alarm application can dim the screen. But is like a way for this to be system wide. Does anybody know a way of doing this?
If you can share I'd be most appreciative.

I use something called screen filter from the market. It puts something similar to a black screen overlay on the screen and allows you to control how much it dims.

You can also get an app called Curvefish Brightness Level which will dim your screen lower. The phone controls only allow you to bring it down to 8%, I believe. This app lowers the brightness to 0%, which makes a difference.
For further dimming, use the app recommended above.
My eyes thank you both. I tried Curvefish's solution and it couldn't do low enough (works well, but my room is pitch black at night. Would work for someone in a theater which is why I'm keeping it). Screen filter works extremely well for my needs. The only downside is it does some funky things to blacks when enabled. I can live with that, and its a small price to pay for might time reading comfort.
Thanks again.
EDIT And if anyone wants to know, I'm using Alarm Clock Plus. I like it a lot.

Every now and then, my screen brightness keeps on lowering automatically. Sometimes, brightness gets reduced to half, sumtimes even lower!
All the settings under power saving is turned off + under display -> Auto adjust screen power is also unchecked…
Anybody knows wht can be this issue ???
I believed you could try disable this option too. As it also dim your screen according to the image or program showed on screen.
Hope this help.

Hi again, I just found another thing to make the screen dim after I set screen to low light.
When I set light to low. Any program I used will not effect to screen light except the build-in browser. When I open the browser my screen dim itself to high brightness.
As I recalled, build-in browser have function to dim the screen too. Maybe other programs may have this function and can effect screen dim.
Hope this may help.

I also have this problem of ramdom screen dimming.
Auto brightness unchecked. The same thing with unchecking auto config screen.
May be it's a conflict with the inner brightness of the default browser.
Is there app that works like ipad smart cover that when you lift (with note pull it out from case) it would light up screen...=?
I think the app "Smart Screen Off" would do what you are looking for.
theres a liite version you could try: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.android.smartscreenoff&feature=search_result
Haven't tried it myself so not sure how good it is.
Here are some doubts i have about the screen orientation: the home screen is always displayed in portrait mode, Doesn't care about what settings i have, whether itis locked in landscape mode or not, or anything of that sort. I tried disabling the 180 degree orientation leaving only 90 and 270 checked. No go. Is this normal in all CM10.1 installations, or is it specific to the Ovation or is it purely my own dumbness, if that's even a word? I am more confused because i allowed the lock screen to be displayed in landscape, and it does. Just not the home screen.
Secondly the Skype app willonly work at 90 degrees orientation. Not even 270. Even if it is locked to landscape, shouldn't it be available at both 90 AND 270?
All other apps reorient or lock as per the tile in my quick settings panel. Why then is the home screen and Skype so stubborn.
I am running CM10.1 2030719 UNOFFICIAL Ova

I use the screen filter app on GS4 at night because it burns the eyes if I don't. I was just curious if, for some reason since this display is different, if the screen filter app is safe to use (on the flex or any other device)?
