Robyn,
I see where you're coming from. But, really, to me a market's a market's,
a marekt. Some will disagree but my brokerage statements prove it. They
all contain profit potential. Whether it options, futures (the hardest of
all markets to trade because a gain can dissapear so fast!), stocks, cash,
whatever - it's true that market's are made up of people, acting in the
same way. Therefor I believe the same concepts apply to all -- support and
resistance, overbot and oversold, is the trend up or down, that's all you
need to know! KISS! This applies to EOD and RT.
So, yeah a jack of all trades because there's money to made in all markets
at some point in time as long as trading strategies are kept simple and
robust.
So I do find it very useful to have access to all that data and at a
reasonable cost. I just wish they would keep it clean(er).
Brian.

Well - Telescan seems cheaper - but how many people need unlimited stocks,
futures, mutual funds, options and indices? Jack of all trades - master of
none?
