Help me choose a news service

Benzinga is a total joke. Recycled garbage full of useless advertising. I challenge anyone to find something useful on that site.

Benzinga's "Squawk" realtime news service seems decent if you trade news, but not sure how it compares to others like TradeXchange re: speed or content. It comes free with certain levels of ThinkOrSwim accounts, so I've tried keeping it on (audio) in the background in the past when I traded more news climactics, and it seemed OK.

Don't know how much it costs if you have to pay for it as a direct sub to Benzinga...
 
I been trading for over 10 years and a Member on here for 4 years.. Have to say I tried them all and the one that in my opinion is the best out there with Squawk is The TradeXchange.. How can you beat under $40.. All other places are typically around $100 or more with squawk..

Correct - unfortunately not everyone can afford this service - in Europe they charge you about US$ 1,850 plus 19 % VAT plus exchange fees, if applicable, for a single work station.

That is okay for an institution that has the entire infrastructure based on the Reuters app.

I would love to pay $400 or $500 for their news feed, but they do not offer news service alone.

You can get a rebadged Reuters Eikon terminal, as metastock xenith, for $99 or $150 a month. Has all Reuters news apart from some of the deep background stories are blocked that are probably not market moving.
