These guys have a faster Excel interface, I don't know how many issues you can watch at a time but this is probably as good as it gets.

there are so many brokerages/data providers etc that have an Excel interface, it has to come in handy at some point.

This tool only receives TS feed (TS sends out data to excel),
so not much used by traders.

what majority Tradestation users need is, to receive or retrieve
data from excel to play any market that TS don't support

I was more pointing out that there is a fast interface for Excel. Data providers could all provide a similar interface, maybe some do already. I'm seeing Excel as a node of integration between different data providers and different software vendors and IB.
