This software where can I get it or try it at home and will it work with a single monitor. Is there a similar or better software. I use yahoo finance to see news and I am not sure how fast this software versus yahoo news is.
Look at www.money.net $150 a month. Metastock Xenith http://www.metastock.com/products/realtime/#realtime (a rebadged Reuters Eikon) from $99 a month. www.Esignal.com from $45 a month for delayed.
Thats bloomberg. Its about 2 grand a month. Not worth it imo, Ive used it for years. Youre better off with reuters or some other software, a good part of the info provided on bloomberg can be found in other news services for a fraction of the price.
Ok i went back to the office and the computer screen says Bloomberg along with the keyboard, but i don't want the whole setup just the software. Where can I just find the price of software.
Software is still 2k a month regardless of keyboard or not. Technically it might be like 1800 a month or whatever.
$1800 - $2000 a month is high way robbery. Unless there is something I don't know about the software that can give me an advantage over those who don't have this. The only advantage I see if the news ticker which can put me ahead 10 minutes if I know what I am looking for against Yahoo finance news. I already got a live real time ticker from Optionshouse. Is there something that is valuable to getting access to these high price monthly subscription from Bloomberg and Reuters. Also mid price like Metastock. I will also ask the manager if employees can get access to the software at home.
