Re: [RT] CQG vs Aspen Graphics

I have used Aspen for an extended period with a satellite feed. The software
is not that bad, and I don't think any worse than CQG for ease of use imo.

I was surprised to hear you say it was 1/3 the cost of cqg over the net. CQG
is 395 + exch fees over the net. Is Aspen (and I believe they use a comstock
feed over the net) that much cheaper?

Also I see FututresSource is making a fresh push with a new internet based
product.
