I'm looking for a free or relatively inexpensive source for RT quotes and other info by stock (hi of day, lo of day, vol, etc) that I can hotlink into Excel. I've used the MSNQuote feature in Excel for a while, but it's delayed pricing only. Thanks to anyone who can help me out.... Swish
I trade with I.B. For $10/month I get stock and stock option realtime quotes in my Excel spreadsheets(DDE).
Try www.quotein.com. They have several RT feed options (use RTD functions). If you have Ameritrade/Datek account - feed is free. The also have free delayed feeds and real-time ECN feed. MyTrack and IB have an option for Excel DDE feed, but they both have a limit for number of tickers you can receive at one time. QuoteIN does not have this limit.
IQFeed includes a DDE server. $20/mo will get you RT stocks streaming into Excel. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=27302
