Can anyone using a vendor API like Nanex, Polygon etc. comment on why you are using their APIs instead of just using a much cheaper feed from a broker like Alpaca, TD Ameritrade, Tradier etc. ?

Biden is 1 of the weakest presidents in my lifetime. Can't even get the Saudi in line while we basically supply all of their weapons and they will be dead without us.

Shorting stocks is extremely risky and shouldn't be taken lightly. It's hard for you as an individual to pressure a company or publish any credible reports that can move the market so I wouldn't count too much on that. On another note, BYND is being shorted like crazy by the hedgie at the moment.

Totally agree Tesla will deserve a higher valuation in a year or 2. However, at the moment, given their deliveries and sales, the stock price seems reasonably priced

jharmon: I'm not sure what is the beef between you + Polygon and Finnhub but I did some research of my own and doesn't look like they deserve the hate you are throwing at them. The post you referenced have also been deleted by admin for a reason since I couldn't find it. If you can't comment on...

Hey ! Thank you for the input. Can you share how much are you guys paying for the AlphaSense license? I think I will give AlphaResearch a try to see how it fits into my research process and let you guys know since I read through 10-K and 10-K reports a lot manually.

Just came across this website AlphaResearch, which seems to do wonder for searching companies filings texts and transcripts data + basic fundamentals with global coverage. Previously, there were Sentieo and AlphaSense both of which are ridiculously expensive for normal investors. Just thinking...

Hi Quinton, if you don't mind I have a quick question after doing some research. Looks like IEX let everyone access and redistribute their data for free (https://iextrading.com/trading/market-data/) . However I assume there is "connectivity cost" if you want to cross-connect with their server to...

Thank you. Well the exchanges are like mafia. They charge you for "access fee" without providing that access on their own. I don't know why it is even legal to do that. But I guess that's the game we have to play in this industry.

Thank you for your answer. Super helpful. I'm kinda new to the financial industry (currently working for a Canadian bank on Wall st) so just trying to understand how the fee structure works and understand the cost of data providers like you guys. While I have you here, can I ask a few more...

Thank you for the response. I'm somehow even more confused with your answer :( I get the display and non-display fees. However, let say i'm the market data provider who needs Indirect access. Do I get that "Indirect Access" from the stock exchanges (SIP, CTA/UTP) or I have to go out and pay...

Hi, Just curious about the exchange fees for indirect connection via an API or Internet. Does the exchange itself provide this API and we pay the exchange "indirect connection fees" to access this API ? Or do we need to talk to a 3rd party providers, pay them, then pay the "indirect connection...
