List Members,

Coming into the 11th hour with the Omega data refresh/HistoryBank support
about to change (will Omega really start charging us this time?), a question
or two comes to mind...

Looking back at the group moan regarding the refresh material itself - I'm
not usually a moaner, but have indeed found it true that the HistoryBank
download does indeed change "history".  I've used a realtime BMI satellite
feed to prepare for entry/exit on the e-mini and regular S&P during the day,
but find surprising gaps of data after my HistoryBank data "refresh".

I have used TradeStation for around five years now, and for the most part
find that it suits my needs.  I currently have the TS2000i package.

I do, however, question even the vague thought of someone charging me for
bogus tick data, especially when they have already lightened my wallet
considerably upon product purchase/upgrade.

So, enough idling.  My question is:

Are there currently any reliable/recommended alternatives to Omega for a
tick data refresh for TS?

Thanks for reading; all thoughts welcome.
