IB and Reuters News Feed

Quote from learner2007:

Does Quotecenter still use those Athena charts? I took
the 30 day trial a few years ago and found the charting to be light-years behind other software. I was spending more time adjusting the charts than trading. Truly not designed for traders.

Yes, they are pretty basic. I only have a couple of charts on my Quotecenter and mostly just for quick looks. Some of their screens remind me of mainframe terminal emulator days. Very nostalgic. :)

I use MetaStock Pro for charts and Quotecenter for data not charting.
 
Hi Bernard,

I have been wanting to get a live news feed from reuters or dow jones, but i cant seem to find any links to these products on their websites.

I assume this feed is the same as what prop and wall street get.

Can you direct me to a link where i can buy such a live feed to use at home. You appear to have bought the dow jones one, is it just as good as reuters?

Thanks,
Dave
 
Ok, thanks. What exactly do the tier levels mean? I don't trade the news so I am not up on how much or what you get with these types of services.
 
Quote from upanddown:

It means that if you have a office with one person who needs access, you pay$ 305. The next pays $116,-- and so on

Ok, I should have figured that. I wasn't sure if it was different content or not. I still wonder how much better DJ news is than Reuters North American package for the difference in price. Reuters is something like 65/mo. I might pay 100 or so per month if DJ was really good but 300 seems like a ripoff to me.
 
thanks for the replies guys.

yea 300$ is way too much imo, i heard that reuters was under 100$ a month or something.

does any1 have a link to where i can buy the reuters feed?

thanks,
Dave
 
Good luck getting Reuters. They are very hard to deal with if you are a retail investor.

Thompson financial may be your best bet. About 170 p/m
