>I suggest you check out the OptionVue real-time software at optionvue.com which allows real-time trades at their online brokerage accounts using their software. - Herm Herm and others, have any of you checked out OPTIONSTAR at freeweb.pdq.net This little $99.00 program, which works under an EXCEL spreadsheet, comes with FREE 20 minute delayed quotes and really has a lot of info in it. Put in a stock you are looking for and, among other things, it gives you all the numbers on some 37 different plays for that stock - from buying the stock to shorting the stock and 35 other options plays inbetween. You folks here can certainly give an opinion on it's good/bad points ref its cost. I would appreciate any comments. jb
