Re: EOD Futures provider

Guy,

Yesterday I downloaded 2 continuous futures contract for 5 years which was
about 2600 quotes.  It took about 40 secs from logon to logoff and another
10 to dial and connect.  Normal EOD updates are about 5 secs for me.  Never
had a problem logging on.  It would be nice if they had an internet route
accessable through MSDownloader but the direct dial is fast I guess. (It's
the only one I've used).  My concern is how accurate the data is.  How to
check this?  I guess you can cross check with data you already have from
other vendors.  Let me know what you think.  If it's lousy we'll both be
looking for a vendor.
