Jay, I routinely check the data automatically downloaded from Neurstock. So far I only noticed one problem, and that was last week, when an index didn't update to the last day. It corrected the following day. I also reviewed data directly downloaded form the MI site, and I found that it was full of problems, such as as missing days, dates out of order, and mishandling of holiday data. IMO the MI site is to be used only for emergency downloads and then only for the stock or two I'm playing at the time.

I routinely download data for about 40-60 stocks and indices, and it takes about 15 minutes a day.

I've never actually checked the MI data versus other sources.

My main complaint with MI is that I never know when the data will be updated.
