On CNBC , the 2 streaming ticker tapes at the bottom of the screen. Is there a pattern in what is listed on the ticker tape? Why does the top move faster than the bottom?

The top one is the NYSE and the bottom is the Nasdaq and Amex.
Every 10 or 20 minutes, they show the futures and commodities prices and index prices on the top bar. Maybe that's why the top one is faster, but it's probably just to stagger them out, make them each more distinctive, to be able to see them separately.
The ticker is trying to show all trades. There is no order, but merely each trade as it happens with the last price and volume. After the market closes, then they display the stocks in alphabetical order.

This penny stock service has years of proven experience. Ultimately it is the best service for beginners to use https://tr.im/oxypW
You will have to wait between 3 and 10 days to get into the system in most cases. When I signed up it took 8 days. I wished it was faster, but if you can wait a week or two to start earn life changing money than you will have what it takes to make it in this business.

Why does the top band turn yellow sometimes. You will see Dow or Nasdaq turn yellow. Why?

One is the Nasdaq and one is the NYSE and AMEX. I believe it is based on trading volume.
