There is an official VV Yahoo club that meets Mon,Wed, and Fri from 9-
10PM ET. It is moderated by a VV employee. You might try there for
some information.
http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/vectorvestonlineusersgroup
It is an Access database. They currently only provide an EOD service
that can be daily or weekly. They have a number of proprietary
indicators which is why they are so secretive. You can export their
data to a csv file. Alot of their data is fundamental data. If there
is more information that you need that will not violate their
copyright then I can try to help you.
