    Esignal definately lagging today, yesterday was really bad. 10-15 seconds is insane.

  2. Has anyone tried Quotecenter from Equis. Data is supplied from Rueters. Nice thing is much more data than esignal and has virtually every instrument traded in the world.

    Would appreciate any feedback.

    My comment was tongue in cheek. E Signal is way too expensive for me. I discontinued my subscription over two years ago.

    I now use IB with quotetracker. Best combo you could ever wish for, and customer service with QT is the best.

    Did not notice anything last couple days, at least for futures data.

    Has Reuters news as well for $135 a month, I am surprised more people have not tried it.

  6. just 21,

    I believe there is a bit of a hitch though, you need Equis Metastock software, which costs extra. But I'm not sure on that.

    EIther way, if it was a decent feed I'd go for it, because of all the international markets they offer. 250 days of intraday and 30 days of tick data, 20 years EOD, and I"ve heard very good things about their support staff. Polite and listens.

    I didn't get that impression from their website. I thought you could get it without metastock. It is Reuters Bridgestation rebranded, costs $1000 a month from Reuters.

  8. I've been a faithful realtick user for years now (for better or worse), but I'd have to say that their quotes have been pretty much on the ball for quite some time now (charts tend to lag about .5 sec).

  9. Interesting, I had been looking at Bridgestation and found it to be a truly superior product. I wasn't aware that Quotecenter was essentially the same product, that would be most exciting.
