I think any issues are probably a thing of the past. I often compare PFG's data with a couple of quote vendors, eSignal among them, and PFG data is typically spot-on for the products that I watch--mostly metals, eminis, and grains.

Trader Mini-- PFG has integrated trading with esignal as well, and you can trade from the charts--futures and spot fx. You don't have to pay globex data fees if you have an account with them.
