In my experience actively trading listed stocks during the day it was best to work with mental stops. Only enter the order when your stop price...
I believe eSignal already offers forex quotes. It's approximately $50-70 extra per month depending on the level of service. I've never used it,...
Yes, in my experience, 95% of the time 'hitting the bid" with a limit order at the NYSE will be faster than a market sell. Note, this is true of...
You're not going to get as fast a fill on a 1) odd lot, and 2) market order on a listed stock. That's true for the entire day session, and even...

Slightly off subject, but that was an old article, from around 2000 or so. I'm not sure, but I think those scans would get you killed in this...
You can do as dloomis suggests above, but I don't think you can get a bar or candle chart out of the spread, just a line. It computes the value on...

If you want the "open" then I'd go the DDE route if anything just to save having to type 30 opening prices into a spreadsheet everyday. I use...
I'm not sure what you're after.. You could use a DDE link from your quote vendor to track the thirty dow stocks. The index is price-weighted....
