Guys,

I share the same concerns about any real-time data off the web. It's choked during high usage times. I'm convinced that the reliability of a BROADCASTED SATELLITE FEED is the best way - no internet or telephone traffic jambs holding up this kind of system. My experience with DBC's Signal "box" tied to through the satellite cable TV system has always provided me with outstanding data response. It does cost more but it has paid for itself many times over. For anything cheaper I'd simply use an on-line brokerage trading system - they give away bunches of real-time quotes if you are favored or frequent trader. The web is o.k. if you understand the inherent risk of it being loaded down. This is a potential problem for anyone supplying any kind of data over it.
