"Thanks for the great product and support. During this week of high volume trading, my QuoteTracker + IQ Feed setup never missed a beat. Also, thanks for your swiftness in responding to data issues. I was on ******* for a few years before I made the switch over early this year, and wish I had done it a long time ago." - Comment from Ken

hi, I have subscribed to IQfeed and am currently using Medved Quotetracker. I am finding that Quotetracker is OK, but not great -- too many limitations. I.E, you have to have a chart window open for its "paintbar alerts" (another word for programmed strategies) to fire. This wastes a lot of CPU and screen real estate. I am looking for a program that has the following characteristics:
- lets me enter in a list of 20-30 stocks that I want to watch for signals
- watch these stocks tick by tick and fire alerts based on the rules that I set up
- have a reasonably well-developed programming language to allow for fairly complex strategies-- i.e, symbol X compared to symbol Y, comparing the same stock over various timeframes (e.g 1,3,5,30 minutes), etc etc.
- reasonably priced (i.e, purchase outright or pay ~$30-70 month
I haven't been able to find much of anything that meets these. Closest thing I can find is Trade-Ideas.com but that is a little pricey and seems to be more of a black-box type thing where you can select from predefined strategies that they have developed and then fire alerts on the symbols you choose-- which isn't exactly what I'm after. any ideas? cheers

Hi Luckman,
Have you looked at DTN IQ it already meets 3 of your 4 requirements.
lets me enter in a list of 20-30 stocks that I want to watch for signals
watch these stocks tick by tick and fire alerts based on the rules that I set up
reasonably priced (i.e, purchase outright or pay ~$30-70 month
And our API would fit for the 4th
have a reasonably well-developed programming language to allow for fairly complex strategies-- i.e, symbol X compared to symbol Y, comparing the same stock over various timeframes (e.g 1,3,5,30 minutes), etc etc.
You can take a look at some of the available features at www.IQFeed.net.
Thanks for using DTN Stan S
