Thanks for all the help- and just for the record I am glad that you decided to post this
message here on SI so that others will also benefit ! The best part of SI is having the
ability to ask questions and getting a reliable answer from someone that is willing to take
the time and effort to help others. Of all the people that I know, no one has a real
interest in the stock market let alone trying to daytrade (besides some great people I
have come in contact with here)

Right now I am using StockEdge ( DBC ) for quotes and a third party software
package from MarketSoft Research called Tradewind for charts - this is the only
software I have tried but I think that it is excellent - And for StockEdge - well it was a
very reliable service until they started offering level 11 quotes. they have some work to
do and I hope they fix it soon. I use Datek for my trading account, and Quick&Reilly
and WaterHouse for long term stocks.

My history - about 10 years ago started in funds, did real well, 5 years later got bored
and started investing in individual stocks,kinda long term - for the most part probably
about 1 to 2 months. And just around 6 months ago started day trading.

From your post I assume that you use either AB Watley or MB trading ?
You odvisly have level 11 quotes.

Right now I have yet to sign up for level 11 with StockEdge. I always use limit orders -
most of the time at the ask, sometimes below

Commissions are not of the greatest concern ( I remember when deep discount was still
on average for me around $ 150 )

Do you feel like you have a definite advantage with level 11 ?

Tim
