If you want to hassle with the file manipulation on a daily basis, you can get it for $9.95 per month via e-mail.

Subject: Data feeds/tools
I am interested in monitoring a wide range of markets, including U.S.
stock and bonds, commodities, futures, options, and foreign exchange
markets. For my own use, I am interested in daily prices. In the office,
I am perhaps also interested in real time prices.
What are my options to get these data? For home use, what is the
cheapest option for daily prices for all markets?
I am also interested in learning about charting and analytical tools. I
am currently using Telechart 2000 which has sparked my interest in going
deeper. In particular, I miss being about to relate my trading charts to
statistical analysis. For example, I would like to be able to form my own
indices of stocks, bonds, commodities, and to do analysis of my portfolio's
performance. (For example, what happens to the beta of my portfolio if I
add a particular stock? What are the risk a characteristics of my stocks?)
Also, I would like to be able to monitor not only my stocks, but also
related options and futures contracts. In other words, I would like to
monitor arbitrage relationships.
What are the best all around tools for analysts that trade stocks?
Stephen
