Richard,

You must be reading my mind.
I was wondering about your position on RT and Div Adjusted data.

I had a superficial look at Bourse last week - they appear to be 
inward looking - no external compatibility - I think they have also 
dropped option chains which I thought was their big plus.

Yes, Pulse is operative and with DDE but there's no price advantage 
cf say, ESignal - my thinking is that there's no point asking Tomasz 
to write up a plugin for Aussie RT because it would only be ESignal 
equivalent. Also as you say I suspect there is little demand (it 
appears the majority are happy to push data to AB from their broker).

Always appreciate your specialist comments.
