"as always- was tradable intraday perfectly well with QCHarts, except for those 5 minutes after the fed announcement"
Just so you know, good data was available from other services "for those 5 minutes after the Fed announcement." And one didn't have to turn off antivirus programs, either. Besides needing 256 ram and an 800 mhz chip, does QCharts require a ventilator, dust-free environment, constant temperature, low humidity, etc.?
And curiously enough, the "insane" volatility during that time showed that others were actually trading at that point. No doubt all of them were nuts, though. I can assure you they weren't all trading without data.
Traders have genuine concerns about the reliabilty of the data, and they aren't so easily dismissed, in predictable, repetitive posts. Some expect more from their data providers, and that doesn't mean they hidden agendas. It simply means they expect to get what they're told they're paying for. |
