You 
may have misunderstood me. Most US national holidays occur on a Friday or 
Monday. When I used Telescan, I found that after a 3 day holiday (not after 
several days of no downloads) the downloading of about 1500 stocks would take 
more than 2 hours, versus a few minutes a other times. When I called Telescan on 
this they denied that anything was wrong. Finally I got hold of of a senior 
person who admitted that they did have a problem with Metastock downloads and 
with the Telescan data base management.  After struggling with them for 2 
or 3 years, I switched to Quotes Plus.

If 
Telescan has corrected this problem, I may reconsider them.

  I have not experienced this problem. I download 
  about 2500 stocks and 45 futures and its takes about 2 minutes. I just came 
  back from a 4 day trip and it took me about 6 minutes.

    Telescan used to 
    be a royal pain when downloading after a hoiday. Instead of taking a few 
    minutes for the download it would take several hours.  Has Telescan 
    fixed this defect?

        a clean form?
         
        Thanks

          John,
          I have been using Telescan for over a 
          year and found them very satisfactory. Its around $29 depending on 
          what you want. Phone is 18003248246.

            Hi everyone
             
            Can anyone suggest an EOD data vendor, 
            I'm looking to download about 300 stock symbols & about 10 to 15 
            Futures symbols (both US & European contracts). At the moment 
            I'm using Dial Data, but there're too expensive ($70 per month), I 
            want to pay no more than about $25 per month. Any suggestions very 
            welcome!
