TFF - let's be specific: Towsend data are not connected with QCharts.

Don't know either if that program is still downloadable for new subscriptions after Mar 01.
Works fine here, and has been limited to the 3 minis: SP, Nasdaq, Fortune
cme.com
It appears that the feed is housed at the CME, not Towsend. (address of data feed is www.cme.com/web/realtime5/).
Very performant and has vol@bid and vol@ask.
Data is real RT, and my orders through Webvestor (real fast browser based ticker) appear on the CME at my mouse click.
Every other feed or order entry I have been using display some ticks before my order. Every data feed sets priorities to quadrant of data they send. First being last price of equities, last in the list, at almost every feed I know, the futures.
I couldn't daytrade without anymore. Two, or even one, seconds delay could be a killing.
Hope CME will continue that service after Sep 01 with fees.

Having RT prices and volumes, I can accept delays of some seconds on my charts: you would anyway need some seconds to analyze and select your limits and qty.
