    I am trying to move off TradeStation, so I am in the same boat.

    The two main vendors I have found are eSignal and IQFeed.

    They both seem to have similar capabilites, but esignal costs more.

    IQFeed requires windows. Not sure about eSignal, but they offer a trial and will answer questions via a real time chat.
