No to tradestation. I took a good look at it (the realtime version) and also what you would need for a datafeed (e.g. Stardata), and the cost for it all. Then there's the problem of the datafeed. It can come on the "sideband" of TBS (cable t.v.), but only in some locals. Not sure if there are any in Canada, or that's just a U.S. thing....so the only alternative was a satellite feed, and a 4 foot dish given the latitude I'm in (just north of Toronto)....and on and on. In my mind, way too much hassle and cost. Some people swear by it and think it's just the best. To each his own I guess, but for what I do, stockwatch is doing just fine, and at about 1/4 of the price. Especially since they've added the intraday charting, it is quite good I find. Not all the bells and whistles, but more than enough for my needs right now. Kevin
