As far as real time free quotes, most online brokerage firms have them.
If you don't trade online and you are paying your broker big bucks for
commission. Have him / her call you or page you. If you want real time
over the internet, PCQuote is cheaper for RT. than Quote.com. It is
$75/mo on the low end. That is what I use and it also allows you to
graph the data in real time in Excel.
Excel may not be the prettiest thing to chart with, but $75/mo is a
steal. The type of trading I do is position trading of stocks.
