With a database other than that supplied for RT III?

Understand that ESP uses it's own datafeed on our servers in Virginia, and does not require RT3 (or Qcharts, etc) on the client end to supply data. This is the only feasible way ESP could work, since ESP demands a very high end data feed to send every tick, every quote, every market maker update on every stock into the computer for analysis. A RT3 or Qcharts feed could not possibly handle that kind of load.

With the datafeed and computation/analysis on our servers, the only information that needs to be passed to the client computer is the alert or scan result themselves. No heavy bandwidth required, no data feed required. ESP could run solo on a simple Pentium 90 machine with 32 MB of RAM and a 14.4 modem. However, as I said, I wouldn't recommend it. It's much more valuable when coupled with a charting and execution package (which would need a more powerful machine).

I hope this answered up your question and clarified things a bit.
