--Hi Steve.
I tried several of them. The only 2 I found to be worth anything were
MetaQuote and ML Downloader. Metaquote costs twice as much and MLD
does a lot more than the others. After 2 months, I'm still finding
new things to do with it...very powerful...very cheap.
If you try one, do yourself a favor and create new folders for the
data from each downloader. If you use your existing folders or
directories, you will be trying a blend 2 different products and end
up with a mess.
The only problem you should have is bad data that you sometimes get
from Yahoo or Quote.com. Not much to do about that. When you see a
goofy data spike, just go to BigCharts java (or wherever), get the
right data and fix it in the data window (R click chart prices).
Sure saves money and MLD is very, very fast..you'll be amazed! Good
trading.
Bob
