Interesting.
I use DTN for my data which comes in delayed over cable. I feed this
into a
software program called Livewire which includes both charting and
portfolio
management. I dedicate one computer to this and have networked another
computer
using NT 4.0 Charting is good but not as good as Metastock. I have to
convert
the data to use it in Metastock. I've been looking around and looked at
PCQuote
a couple of days ago. Looked interesting.
Do you have a dedicated phone line connected to the Inet all day to get
the data
from PCQuote?
