    Good chart software for daytrading ???

    Who are you trading through? If it is IB then try www.sierrachart.com or a program called IB Charts, not sure of the web address. If you are not with IB then maybe: www.prophet.net, www.barchart.com, yahoo finance, e-signal has a tuned down version that is inexpensive. Hope it helps.
