Jaime.

QuoteTracker is not a feed per se. Its a real time analysis and charting program. It can work with almost a 100 sources including all the broker based services (eg Scotttrade, E-Trade, InteractiveBrokers). Some of these are free if you are a customer but there are other cheap options you can use. The one I use is money.net which for under $20 a month provides real time streaming data and backfill. Another even cheaper is livecharts from quote.com.

You can find details of what QT provides here: quotetracker.com. Online support is available on SI on this thread. Subject 22551

I have found Jerry very responsive.

It itself is available in two ways - one free of charge but you have banner ads, the second at a charge of around 7 $ per month, with no banner ads. QT has an API (basically a web server component) which allows external programs to access the price data. This is what Amibroker uses.

As i said QT is a pretty sophisticated charting program in its own right. It has loads of indicators + alerts and news. As such i tmay be all you require.

What Amibroker adds is IMHO a nicer charting interface. and to the ability define your own indicators/trading systems usings its formula language. It also obviously provides for building up a long term database of stuff. QT only keep the last five days.
