An application to monitor Bitcoin markets and notify you when shit hits the fan.

Description

This application watches the Bitcoin markets via Bitcoin Charts and notifies you when specific events occur.

BTC Sentry is exceptionally basic right now, and is intended for my personal use. I may or may not expand on it at a later date.

It's essentially a looping JSON fetcher from the Bitcoin Charts Markets API.
