"I just wanted to say how happy I am with your service. I was able to download the API docs last week and I was able to replicate Interactive Brokers historical bar queries and realtime bar queries over the weekend. That was about one of the fastest integrations that I've ever done and it works perfectly!!!!" - Comment from Jason via Email

Export the wathlist data into csv file 3. Close the watch list. I can use "WatchList.exe test.wat" to open a watchlist of "test", but that is all I can do so far. How to export the data and close the watchlist? Thanks,

You would need to us a windows macro utility if you wanted to script the functions you mention. Jay Froscheiser DTN - Trading Markets

Is it based on DDE spreadsheet ? How can I get my spreadsheet to list 1300 symbols? Now I can only list 500 symbols...thanks!

You may contact sales at 1-800-475-4755 and they should be able to give more complete data on this including pricing. Edited by DTN_Tim Walter on Apr 25, 2006 at 03:56 PM
