Re: [amibroker] New EOD data feed other than Quotes Plus

["Ara Kaloustian" <ara1@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Dan, I am not sure how other handle it.

 

I know many are willing to to do a lot of work in order to use free data from Yahoo or add fundamenttal info from Yahoo.  I have not tried it, but my impression has been that what you get is what you pay for. I would rather pay a reasonable fee and get a reliable product.

 

About TC 2000, I beleive it is slower than QP and remapping can be a bunch of work and I don't care for their industry mapping either.

 

QP has been fine for me with very few exceptions.

 

We all meet some unacceptable service personnel from time to time ... I take it as part of dealing with people. It's usually OK, but sometime it is not.

 

Sorry can't really be of much help.

Ara,

 

Hi.  It?s been a long time.   

 

I remember that I did not like the industry/sector info from TC2000.   I can remap the data if necessary.   How do others handle this?

 

Thanks,

 

Dan.

TC2000 is reliable, but they do not have fundamentals or very few. (at least that's what I remember from a while back).

 

They do not have commodities and charge extra for mutual funds. Their data is ready earlier than QP.

 

Their industry / sector structure is completely different tha QP.

I?ve been using Quotes Plus data for the last 2-1/2 years.    Overall, I?ve been very happy with Quotes Plus data and Gary Lyben?s (owner/president) responsiveness.   That said?

 

In the last few days, I?ve swapped several e-mails about a minor billing issue (credit card renewed with different number) with a woman in his billing department.   What should have been a very minor clerical issue left me feeling EXTREMELY angry and offended.  

 

I vowed to switch my data feed from Quotes Plus to another data feed as soon as possible.   This is a major issue for me because of the amount of AFL recoding involved, but I can no longer do business with Quotes Plus.

 

I need some options for other EOD data feeds.   What EOD service are you using?   What has your experience been?   What are the alternatives now?

 

Thanks and regards,

 

Dan.
