  1. bloomberg software is too expensive, are there any alternatives out there that have the comparable feature set?

    depends what you arereally looking for CQG has lots of the same stuff with better charts. does it have all the bond stuff, no.
     
  3. I've searched high and low for a replacement to Bloomberg, but it doesn't exist. So I put up with their pricing and their policies. I've used some Reuters products in the past, and they were pretty decent, but Bloomberg blows them out of the water. And if you need access to news/analytics on everything from stocks to bonds to currencies to commodities, then there's only one game in town.

    Like the last poster stated, though, there are alternatives if you're focused on just one or two markets. Is that the case?

    Good luck,
