In light of the diminishing quote server performance on Datek, I use Personal Stock Monitor with PCQuote's RealTime Quote server for quotes and Orders7 to do my trades. The advantage to PSM / PCquote is I get indexes, stocks and options all on one screen along with real-time intraday charts on the stocks and indexes I'm tracking. (PSM can be found at personaltools.com) Alerts, R/T Ticker, and auto-updates are also possible. Overall price is cheap too! And it offloads some of the strain on Datek so that trading (what we're really here for) performance can stay reasonable. Orders7 is still fast in order execution. Just a suggestion, have a great weekend, Mike
