Ken, Datek Streamer worked ok for me today. Had a few problems, but, no major long term shutdowns. I am using Medved Quote Tracker. Is that the QT feed you are referring to? If not, what is a QT feed? Would appreciate a short explanation of what the QT feed does for you. The Medved Quote Tracker is ok .. but you have to put up with banner ads and you have to click on one of them a couple of times a day. Otherwise the program is nice.

Ken, I've just logged on to check quotes, and notice that there is no data between about 12 and the close. Datek is my QT supply too, so we must be having the same problem. TC.

DATEK servers have been acting up lately. A couple died early in the trading day. QT lets you switch servers - Right click on the SITES dropdown list and select a different server from the popup menu (Make sure to RIGHT Click). If you are using QT version below 1.4.0, you should upgrade - 1.4.0 has better re-connection logic for DATEK and ISLAND streaming quotes. The upcoming versions will have further improvements. (I will answer the other posts now while I am at it) Charts - We will be looking into multi-day live intraday charts in the future. Meanwhile, you can right click on the stock in question, select "Historical Charts..." from the menu, then pick a time period of 10 days or less to get a multi-day historical chart. I know its not pretty, but it works. To get the best use of the charts, you should familiarize yourself with the various features (I know the help file is a bit behind. We are working on that). Right click on the chart to get a menu of various options. NOTE: The current beta (http://www.quotetracker.com/beta) adds Parabolic SAR to the list of intraday indicators, User Picks feature and the ability to view the raw intraday data for a given stock (similar to Time & Sales) In general, QT relies on the Right Click quote a bit, so if you are wondering how to do something, that should be the first thing to try.
