You will hear lots of things about qcharts. Great front end but shitty data reliability at times. I used to use qcharts but server connection problems occurred far too frequently. At first I thought it might be my geography, but it seems many US customers
also complain of connectivity problems. I currently use esignal where the data reliability & speed has been very good [even used on a 56k in Australia ] .
What really needs to happen is someone like iqfeed/dtniq, trackdata or another data provider [ the first two have front ends which need work but good data feeds ] to buy qcharts from lycos. Some people have suggested in these tight economic times, IT companies such as lycos are not exactly cashed up and consequently have been reluctant to spend money on more/better servers. [ I might add, I am not sure it helps things when lycos or qcharts users are entitled to an unlimited number of symbols. Most other providers charge extra - which is fine as long as the money goes to xtra hardware !]
In any event, its a pitty qcharts has these problems because its a great front end. And you may be lucky - there are enough users who don't report any/many of these problems. There are no annual subscriptions with qcharts, so you can always give it the flick later if you experience any problems. Good luck.
