FutureSource TIP Card/BMI Delayed data

["Brian Bishop" <brianbishop@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Does anyone know whether the FutureSource "Tip Card" requires a separate 
IRQ.I have been told by Future Source that it does not. I would like to 
hear from someone who is using FutureSource. I currently have a 30 day 
trial of BMI delayed data and am thinking about switching to real time and 
am considering using FutureSource. I have discovered that there is a 
problem with the way the first tick of delayed BMI data is picked up by 
TradeStation, resulting sometimes in erroneous intraday OPEN data and end 
of day CLOSE data. For example, the end of day (1/28)CLOSE for US8H (March 
Bonds) was displayed in TS as 120.19 when in reality the real close was 
120.18. TS initially said the problem was with BMI. BMI naturally said the 
problem was with TS. I got them both on the phone and I believe now the 
problem is with TS and DELAYED DATA. Has anyone else experienced this? TS 
says that there is not a problem with BMI real time data. I am a new TS 
user and it appears to me that one needs two sources of data. Real time 
data for intraday analysis, and historical data for long term analysis. I 
have Genesis Financial Data's continuos contract CD. What about importing 
this data into a current daily chart? Should I chart GFD data separately 
for long term analysis and use real time data for intraday? Any suggestions 
about data vendors (BMI vs. FS vs. other) and how to chart this data for 
short and long term analysis would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Brian
