Neil, great post. I live in a similar area to you, a small village in North Wales and have no possibility of ASDL connection any time soon. I do not day trade but I am trying to learn how to swing trade. I use IB like you do, and TC 2000 for end of day data. I also use IQ charts for real time. What do you use? Nev
Nev, You may want to look into qql (quicken quotes live I think it is www.quicken.com) thats what I use. Its tghe same like (30$/mo) but I prefer it as it has colored candles/bars, coloured vol and stuff... anyway just my 2c Good luck Alex
