  3. Sorry, ETF. The SEC was considering an Exchange Traded Fund for silver, it was approved, silver spiked.

  5. I just got Equis QuoteCenter for home use.. Must say, I like it. I'm familiar with the Reuters format here at work, so my learning curve was not too bad. As far as the news goes, I got the realtime news feed coming in, as well as quotes

    (I signed up for the Forex package just to "kick the tires" and see if I should progress and outlay more cash for the Commodies and Equities pieces)

    Time will tell, but so far, I kinda like it. It's nowhere near our BridgeStation or Dealing3000, Bloombergs here in the office, but I would say for home use, if you're making the cash, it can be a useful tool.

    I'll try to post a reply here in the latter part of next week once I've had a chance to really delve into the Equis product and customize it.

  6. ChiBondKing,
    what is the real time news feed like. Equis QuoteCenter say you get REUTERS feed. Is this the same news package you get with 3000Xtra? I assume it doesn't compare and you only get part of the news. Thanks.

    You guys think Reuters Bridgestation is better then Thompson One for a pro? Feedback appreciated.

    which news providers offer specialist publications?? besides Blommie.. was looking for a cheaper alternative.. 2K is to high for a single trader.

    does reuters bridgestation offer this info with IB customers for $135

    does Dow jones news offer this and what is the price??
