E-Signal, got to have Data-on-Demand and its real time. Delayed data might work for swing trading 1 hour bars or something like that.
If you are trading one minute bars or something like that, 20 min delayed just isn't going to work.

As far as learning the language, read manual, programming examples in magazines, message boards, both questions and answers and reviewing what other people have done. The rest is trial and error.

For intraday data, what is everyone using?
In the future, when I finish learning how to build a profitable
system and backtested with historical data, I would like to use it on
the real thing! =) Metastock is a really hard program for someone
who is starting out because it is pretty difficult to understand and
use. I must be on a slow learning curve. =( For the meantime, I'm
still using the "old school" Excel for my general market indicators.
How did everyone learn Metastock? A book? Seminar? Trial and Error?
So I would like to know which data supplier do you use for intraday
trading? Is it real-time or 20 minute delayed? I would think if it
is 20 minute delayed, you might as well not trade intraday because
you are always behind. And of course, cost is a big factor, how much
do you pay and do you think it is worth it?
I know there are lots of good intraday traders on this forum, so give
me some feedback. Thanks.
