real-time charting: Cybertrader has it. I just set up an account there, using the CyberX2 platform. Level 2 quotes available, for a high fee, or free if you do a lot of trades. Realtime streaming intraday charts free. It's a subsidiary of Schwab, set up for day-traders. I set up an account there, so I could direct my option orders to the exchange I choose. Having used it for a month, I don't really like it. Am setting up an account at Interactive Brokers, (they also offer the ability to direct option trades, or automatically send the order to wherever the highest bid or lowest ask is, something none of my other accounts do).

AD and Sam, for the last two years I have used (happily) Windows on Wall street, which then became TradeStation. Pricey at $69.00 a month, but I paid for a full year back in April. YTD my largest account is up 43%, yet only about 1/3 of what AD has YTD, but that will pay for some 50 years at this price. Real-time charts, quotes, stock list and news. I have been using Williams R% as an indicator and done quite well. I would say Windows on Wall Street and now TradeStation provides what I need and maybe what you’re looking for although it maybe somewhat pricey. I’ve about 4000 shares of my favorite stocks with over 45% in cash. I am waiting for Jerome and Jacob to say the bottom is “IN”. Once Gottfried agrees with those two and Brian K. starts posting here again, and final BigBuck comes back providing relevant industry news, then I will go 100% stock or even margin again. That is what made my year 1999 and 2000 do so well. Now getting all these “guys” to agree we have made a turn around, then “Back up the Truck” and you wouldn’t need any real time charts, these guys will let us know. I do respect all mentioned above as well as many others (Kirk-Zeev-Tito-Michael-Cary-Paul-AD are all on my watch list) There were many regulars that where quite informative during the run-up. I look forward to hearing from these guys again, and Katherine too. Good luck Stan
