this is legal.

Move on with times and stop shortterm trading.

"Legal" is whatever "they" say is "legal".
If you don't believe me, just ask Obama or Holder.

Same with consumer sentiment, MCSI, I think. Except I think the lead time is much greater if you are a subscriber. (Isn't it about a week?)

Really nothing about Markets is what it appears to the naive to be.

"Business ethics" is an oxymoron. What's more important, being fair open, honest and even handed, or making tons of money?

IIRC, it's a DB product and I had it on CQG. It was something like $600/mth. The barrier to entry isn't that high but the data was predom. German corp and UST for algo (machine-readable).

Now you know it hits wires at 9:42 so take advantage of this new info.

BTW, Holder is on the way out. No later than Nov.

Hope so. And that by 2016 America will have woken up to the bunch of Chicago mobsters that Obama and his gang are.
