Robert,

What data feed do you use and how far back does the historical tick data (or
minute data) go?  I use Dynastore for DTN/IQFeed and only have access to 5
days of tick data.  Historical daily data is not implemented in Dynastore
yet.

To List,
I recently purchased Andrew's On Demand Server (traders-soft.com) and last
week received the latest version.
While I will hardly ever advertise a product my experience with ODS is
outstanding !

It is like have Tradestation 6 inside your Tradestation 2000i.

The main features:
You just type a symbol and it will be plotted real time and historical.
You just prefix a future symbol with CONT: and you get continous contract
data (just like that).
And that while Andrew had to work with only what TS2000i already had to
offer.

Some notes:
Caching is not terrific, so after some delay (for instance a lengthy
optimization) the data will be re-downloaded. Work around: I export history
to ascii and than replot the chart with the static ascii data.
Real time updating works just fine.

Robert

ps. With the previous version I had a few support issues but the help I got
was excellent.
