The above thread mentioned the free S&P webcast
at live365.com. I think this is the page for the station
(though it seems to disappear outside pit trading hours):
http://www.live365.com/stations/202801
I listened to it today and found it useful, especially the
general noise level for a sense of volume and momentum.
The commentator calls out when certain firms (Goldman,
Merrill) have size orders. He also makes comments like,
"Pressure's on...sellers," etc.
I listened for the 15-min CME siren while watching a
java clock at atomictime.net, and it seems like the webcast
is delayed by 15-20 seconds. The broadcaster's web site
advertises a direct phone line for $300/mo, so I guess
that's the premium to lose the delay. Still, you may find
it useful or at least entertaining.
