  1. If you are a programmer/developer in NYC and have worked with integrating real-time market data into a website please contact me.

    Thanks
     

  2. Isn't webbased trading from 1998? Why in heavens name would you want to cross a website with realtime data? Seems oximoronic.
     
  3. Its now quite doable with the latest DHTML technologies like Silverlight and Adobe Air.

    Neither MS Silverlight or Adobe AIR are DHTML technologies. Furthermore, Adobe AIR is a desktop runtime. You're thinking of Adobe Flex.

    Adobe Flex and MS Silverlight are rich-Internet technologies and provide a compelling alternative to HTML-based interfaces delivered by a web-browser. If you'd rather stick to HTML-based technology, AJAX can offer the kind of rich experience you are after.

    For delivering real-time quotes to a browser (whether using Silverlight, Flex or AJAX), server-side push technology is required. COMET is the most likely candidate.

    One of the more well known COMET solutions is Lightstreamer:

    Their homepage has a decent example using AJAX.

    There are many other alternatives though if required.
