Interactive Data to Acquire Lycos Inc.’s Quote.com

  1. ARGGGHHHH !!!

    when will the new or old crew from the lycos
    data feed group get their act together
    on a day to day basis ?
    since they sold their financial biz to IDC
    and esignal ... its really gone done the tubes
    as far as I can see ... if someone has a clue
    as to why a respectable quote service would
    go to pieces at least once a week I should like
    to know ...

    :(

  2. I have noticed that QCharts has problems almost every day now. I thought maybe it was my ISP, but the other feeds seem to work ok.

    ESig people, you really need to get this sorted out quickly or risk having your investment go down the drain. QCharts seemed to finally be reliable before you took over.

    Jerry Medved, I hope you can handle a lot of extra business.

  5. I have been having login problems and data
    retrieval problems
    for live charts - q charts tonight

    what alternatives are there to this vendor
    who has become less reliable for me in the
    last 1-2 months ?

    I do not need "all the bells and whistles"

    only a reliable data vendor for real time prices
    of all exchanges in the USA with perhaps
    the option of adding non USA exchanges

    I know of course of E signal
    and used to use something they offered
    called "market center".

  6. No data at quote.com again !

    What is going on ?

    Even the Lycos people were doing a better job than eSignal ! I guess IDC acquired their competitor so they can better run it into the ground and increase
    eSignal customer base.
    Well don't count on it , everybody is starting to hate you IDC.

  8. Quote.com has turned into total shit under eSignal- IDC !

    lagging quotes, data missing, disconnections etc.

    and did you see the big SNAFU with the Futuresource transition to esignal ?

  9. I agree.

    I will cancel my qcharts service the end of this month. The folks from tickquest/neoticker added the features I needed to drop qcharts. Neoticker supports multiple data feeds to ease that "locked in" feeling.

    I actually had a great experience with qcharts.. and I was never a big fan. Charts have been lagging less, data was actually more reliable then ever for me. But I concentrate on the CBOT and CME data. I don't see a better alternative for the money unless I go CQG which i can't afford anymore.
