Tomasz,
You may have answered my previous question regarding
AMIquote--it gives 15 minute delayed snapshots of
the most recent quote. But how do I get a non-delayed
version of the snapshot without resorting to
real-time data feed? I know yahoo allows for
real-time for a small fee, and brokerages such as
datek provide it for free--also medved quotetracker
can read from it realtime, I believe, and plot
from it. For my purposes, and perhaps others, a
real-time snapshot of o,h,l,c would suffice and
take a lot less memory.
Thanks,
Walid
