I was using TC2000 but recently switched to QuotePlus 3,
one recommended by TJ. You get stocks, Mutual Funds, Futures, Indices
(market breadth metrics), fundamentals on stocks, all for same monthly price as
TC2000, but....no intraday, I'm missing this aspect may go to Medved's QT
for intraday filler on very shot list of tickers. QP3 updates no
earlier than 6:30 PM Eastern Standard US Time. Has
a significantly faster plug in interface with AB.
There were 2 or 3 major threads on the features issues
with both over the past 2 years. Search the archives.
Best regards
JOE

I
use http://akcje.net (polish language
only).
They provide 350MB data in MS format with PL ant other EUs, JP and
US stocks,
commodities, currencies, money market and indexes. There are
also intraday
data available.
You can find a demo of the database
structure here:
http://akcje.net/bazy/demo.zip
They
send every day prn file(s) (about 5pm New York time) that can be imported
as ascii to database.
Price: 16pln+22% vat (equivalent to 4 EUR +
22% vat) per month
Let me know if you require any help or you can
contact directly the provider:
www@xxxxxxxxxx Although this is in polish
only I find this very cheap
comparing to services they provide.
NB.
I'm just an akcje.net's client, nothing more.
