TRAC :-) back to the daily news: NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 10, 1999--Track Data Corporation (Nasdaq NMS: TRAC - news) announced today that it will release myTrack-Web, a version of its successful myTrack online trading system that will allow customers to trade from its website, on Monday, December 13. myTrack has offered its software-based online trading system since its official launch in June and is currently executing more than 4,000 trades per day. While the system has consistently drawn rave reviews from the customer base, there was also a need to allow customers to trade when they are not at their own pc, but are still able to gain access to the Internet from another pc or web-tv. myTrack-Web will also provide website-based customers with the same trade routing and fast executions delivered by myTrack's software-based system. Barry Hertz, Chairman and CEO, said, ''We are very excited about the introduction of myTrack-Web. This offering will mean that any customer can trade comfortably using one or a combination of both of our systems. Potential customers behind corporate firewalls who couldn't trade with our software-based myTrack can now trade on myTrack-Web. It further provides a convenience to customers away from their pc. In addition, it allows our system to be rated along with our competitors.'' Track Data offers the first week of trading commission-free and recently announced that the last week of trading in December will also be free to celebrate the millennium. To open a trading account, go to mytrack.com and click on the ''Open a Trading Account'' button. myTrack is a fully integrated Internet-based online trading and market data system. Trading is offered at prices starting at $12.95 per trade. myTrack is delivered over the Internet powered by application-based software and a constant server connection similar to systems used by professionals, as compared to most of its competitors that provide their service over HTML website-based static pages. myTrack delivers free streaming delayed quotes and unlimited free real-time extended quotes, as well as breaking company news, a trade by trade log, charting for technical analysis and a proprietary library of intraday market statistics. For $19.98 per month plus exchange fees, users can subscribe to streaming real-time quotes. A menu of features, including Nasdaq Level II, is available separately or in value packages. Track Data provides real-time financial market data, news, fundamental research, charting and analytical services to institutional and individual investors through dedicated telecommunication lines and the Internet. The Company also offers online trading through its myTrack Internet-based personal investment service. myTrack is an Internet-based software application that is not restricted by the limitations of an HTML website-based static system offered by virtually all of its well-known competitors such as E*Trade (Nasdaq: EGRP - news), Schwab (NYSE: SCH - news) and Ameritrade (Nasdaq: AMTD - news). myTrack delivers a continuous dynamic stream of live market data and investors' online trading activity. The system is always connected and is an order of magnitude faster than competing website-based systems. Download myTrack software or open a trading account at mytrack.com or call 1-800-myTrack.
