Hello! I want to build a robot that reacts quickly to jobless claims numbers. Bloomberg is the only place I know is providing such a service. May be you know other places? I wanted to get info from Bloomberg website http://www.bloomberg.com/enterprise/enterprise_products/data_optimization/data_feeds/ I filled the form but did neither get any reply nor even notification that my data was sent.
CQG used to have a feed like that was useful like that... but it lags now for some whatever reason...
I've talked to them. They said $20,000 per month for the basic feed and there are two add-ons which are 10k each. It sounds insane but I can see it being worth the money
Don't you think this is already being done by many well-capitalized, technologically well-advanced firms?
Does anyone have the pricing for Dow Jones/Ravenpack/Thomson Reuters/DB AlphaFlash (basically NTKN+MNI feed) machine readable news? I know alphaflash is available directly through CGQ and TT (probably cheaper), but they also have a separate product that's available through TCP/IP. Keep in mind that some providers may have multiple products. I.E, they can sell feeds that have sentiment analysis built-in and then raw feeds.
Bloomberg added certain trusted twitter accounts to its professional service a few months back before the 'twitter crash'. AP was probably one of them. There you go.
From what I have gathered, this is the cheapest service: http://www.trackdata.com/NewsWatch.html Their API is in XML, C++, Java and VB. They supply the NYSE, Goldman Sachs, etc. apparently. It's $1000 a month for MNI news +$1500 for the API (which includes a basic web-scrapping service for certain select websites and twitter feeds) So, overall, you can look to pay $2500. For $ RTTNEWS, it's $5000 a month. For Moreover it's $2500. RTTNEWS basically re-writes DJ, etc. news in real-time and distributes it. Moreover is just a web-scrapper. MNI is about on par with Bloomberg/Reuters/Dow Jones for economic data, however they are a little weak on securities data. The company also offers DJ News for around $10k a month, but there are some restrictions. Ravenpack is around $10k a month, but it also includes sentiment analysis.
