I've used numerous rt quote systems (DTN satellite, BMI satellite and cable, Interquote, PC Quote, Bridge, RT-3 through AB Watley, L2 through WebSTreet, and Q-charts). Q-charts is not only better and cheaper, it is FAR better and much cheaper. I've not found anything even close. FWIW. Matt

Price must be a major factor in that decision. I think Bonneville has the cleanest feed, myself. Also uptime is very good using cable. But the cost is 4 to 5 times higher. Ask Fred what he thinks. I think he and perhaps Tom are the only ones who use it. The cost with BMI increases even further though, because it's just the feed. You have to lay VISTA, ENSIGN, Tradestation, or some other chart program on top of it. For people trading the mini as a rule the price is prohibitive.
