I have been using Dial Data (Internet delivery) for about 6 months now, initially with SuperCharts and now with TradeStation (End of Day only). While I have been quite happy with their data and accessibility, I find their customer service horrible. They seem to approach most questions (billing and otherwise) like the IRS! Any other questions, let me know.

Darth, As you know, I use Dial Data. As for as I know it does not allow for intraday quotes, only after market data downloads. And another drawback is that it sometimes misfeeds the data which you have to later correct in order to perform the analysis. One system which is quite cheap and allows for the real time charts which I like is found at quote.com The real time version of this one is about $79/mth and works quite well. It is run by a Java system and will sometimes give Window 95 problems, but as cheap as it is it works okay. There are no indicators with Quote.com, as are found with some of the other systems such as CBS and others.
