Re: e-Signal Feed via Satellite for MetaStock Pro?



PureBytes Links

Go to http://www.dtn.com/ (products and services, DTNIQ)
In one month or so(July/Aug), they will have an emulator written to
accommodate MS. Cost will be about $210 US / mo. with a sign up fee of $350
US. You get 1 mo. free trial to start and decide if you like the service;
[all the bandwidth you can stand with a set top box to filter the signals
for which you are not paying]. MS does not like the competition and have
been lax in writing an interface.
