Atin, I have used myTrack data feeds for the real time steaming quotes and associated news feeds for years. It has been excellent in my opinion. I tried quotes.com for a year but not in past year. Wasn't bad, just seemed to be more demanding on my system bandwidth. MyTrack almost instantaneous display of bids and asks with transactions logs allow me to see my orders at Brown & Co. hit the market in seconds and see the executions. I am very happy with Brown & Co. which is why I have declined offers to sign on with myTrade, but confimations at Brown range from the usual seconds to sometimes several minutes in fast markets. MyTrack data feeds never seem to lag sore than a second or too. I love the duplication even when everything is clicking. Lately I have experienced an occasional delay of a minute or so accessing or losing a server but not enough to mention except they were so faultless before. I also use a third part of myTrack, their real time AIQ Trading Expert Pro (TEP) technical charting program which includes histories and fundamentals. It strikes a nice balance between overly obsessive analysis and the too-dumbed-down buy-sell in a black box types. aiq.com Also see PEWD's (myTrack HostPaul) page at pewd.com If you would like more details, feel free to PM me. Regards, appro

>>My question is, how is their data service? Are their real time quotes, streaming data for stock and options reliable? << Pc quotes is much more reliable in that respect. Now since I consider PCQ a piece of doodoo but at least the updates are much more fluid for L2's.. And option quotes are much much more reliable. I have not used quote.com or cyber so dont know what/how they work. ps.. I am new to mytrack so I might be missing a lot of things.. especially since my old friends used to swear by them. But I suggest you sign up to all of them and try them out, ABWately has a free service which works like its free but you can see how its like. and mytrack is pretty cheap to try out as well.
