Jim... If you're going to check out data suppliers, you might want to take a look at the one I'm currently using; Primate Software. They have it all, including stocks, futures, indices, options on all, etc. But, they don't have fundamentals anymore. You can get your EOD feed by about 6:30 EDT. Fast and over an 800 number, soon to be available on the WWW. Take a look at primate.com The main reason I'm considering another source is cost, but Primate offers so much that at $22/month, it's a bargain. Ken

Jim, Just Like you got Tired of D/Data, So I went Shopping and Stayed with them, I update The Whole Stock Market in about 45min. to one hour (10,000 Stock securities), and the most I could download at one time was 6000 Securities in one Shot, Where with D/Data from what I remember was about 2500 Securities. The point that I'm trying to make is that Now I've got Wow Personal Assistant Set to Download the Market and Then Scan, and All It takes is about 1 hour to 1.5, and then I just take A look @ the Charts and Don't have To Worry about the Data... Also, can't beat the 31 days free trial and NO Upfront deposit. And Starting Downloading the Stock Data After 30Min. the Market Closed !!!! I haven't Seen Any better Anywhere. Personaly I have No Need for "funnymentals" Data Since I believe to be Reflected in Stock anyway. The Money wasn't the Issue when I Went and Stayed with them (Although Is half of what I used to pay with Dial/Data). And After you register with Prophet, you can make All The Changes In your Account At their Web site and all take Place within minutes (Adding or removing Options). Plus when They have their Metastock data ready, you can probably change Between Wow, Omega, and Metastock data by Just Changing your Username and All that @ their Web Site. I Think the Guys @ Prophet are Great By the Approach they have taken to Offer EOD Service, all @ your Finger tips. Enough Said. Regards, Julius.
