Closest thing to bloomberg

T

What is the closest thing to Bloomberg (bar Reuters.. hate that thing)?

I use Bloomberg at work and grew quite accustomed to it and still don't trade enough at home to justify bloomberg costs.

Any ideas what I could use instead? How is tradestation? Any other ideas would be great.

Thanks

I've used Reuters/Bridge back in 2001. Tradestation nowadays is, imo, better than what I had back then. if that's any help.
 
eSignal for quotes, charts.

Or Tradestation if you like backtesting etc.

Subscribe to DJ News ($30) and briefing.com. Grab a few RSS feeds.

You can get a squawk box for $125.

That pretty much will give you everything you need for about 25% of what Bloomberg costs.

Who needs the Indian cricket scores and the price of Mongolian tanning hides that Bloomy charges in the basic lease?
