Cheapest Charting Service

[bobcathy1]

I am looking for a cheaper charting service than the one I use.

I pay $114 for TradeStation a month.
It must be reliable though.
I need the CME data.
I do not need all the backtesting and historical data or automatic order entry though. I use IB for a broker.
Though I would like one that you can set alerts for events.
Anybody want to reccomend their platforms?
Or are they all about the same price?

Check myTrack (www.mytrack.com) "Service Plans". Or QuoteTracker - up to 4 days of historical charts, as far as I remember.

get QuoteTracker - http://www.quotetracker.com/ib

Its free and since you have the datafeed from IB, the datafeed for it would be free as well
