On real time quotes...

I am not surprised that most members have other sources for quotes. I am one of those. When I want to see what's really going on, I log on to my broker's site or go to one of those sites offering free real time quotes. But that is my point exactly: why send the members elsewhere on the Net? It's to the site's advantage to keep its members here for as many services as possible, no? If we are to be a portal then we need to act like a portal, especially if we aspire to be 1st tier.

On the subject of additional fees, I am not proposing that they be forced upon the membership. I wrote "ability", meaning "option". I would like to have this option and I would be prepared to pay for it. The less sites I have to deal with, the happier I am ;-)

Regards,

Dany
