[RT] CQG vs Aspen Graphics

Hi all,
I am currently using CQG and use what CQG calls
constant volume bars. i.e. same number of ticks per bar.
I use these because I trade an electronic market where 
the liquidity varies quite a bit during the day.

I have just found out that CQG does not chart all ticks.  
E.g an example today was 11 ticks at the same price 
reported as only 3 by CQG.   btw, I am not saying that 
CQG misses prices traded (it does not), but their
implementation of multiple same-price ticks is not what I 
prefer.

I am considering using Aspen Graphics and the S&P 
feed.   I am signed up for a trial, and from what I can see
the feed is OK, and in particular every tick is getting
reported.  (I rang the Aspen guy today and within an hour
I had the internet feed software downloaded and 
running - something of a pleasant surprise)

The interface feels a bit clunky, and seems very close to the
old Knight-Ridder terminals.

I was wondering if anyone had any experience with them
good or bad.  The price is roughly a third of CQG's as well.

Thanks in advance
Peter
