Does anyone have a recommendation on a cost effective service to get realtime streaming charts. I use (URL removed by Moderator) right now but seem to only get the charts around 70% of the time.
Thanks

Blocks Mega Minute provides streaming charts for $49.99/mo with over 4 years of minute history available. With prepay discounts, you can get Mega Minute for as low as $37.50 per month plus $9.25/mo for exchange fees.

Another option would be adding Platinum Service to TeleChart. The base cost for downloading Telechart 2005 Platinum service is $99.99 per month. Platinum includes all the features of Gold service, plus Real Time data, news, alerts, the online chat community, and more. Purchase 10 months of service and we give you 2 months free. You pay $999.90 instead of $1199.88 per year, a 16.6% savings. We also offer you the option to purchase 18 months to get 6 months free. You pay $1799.82 for two years instead of $2399.76, a 25% savings. As with Gold service, this is NOT a contract, so if you decide to discontinue service, call us to get a full refund on all unused paid months. However, you must keep Platinum service for one month.

Not sure that those guys provide anything else than a cheap service.
By the way, I am sure I would trust my executions to Zecco for intraday set ups anyways.
But for example if you were trading with the interactive brokers folks you could pay a single fee of $220 for Amibroker life time license and interactive brokers have a plug in that works right out of the box and would provide you the data for free.
Meaning no more exchange fees and no more monthly fees. You own the application and your broker provides the data and order entry.
By the way, Amibroker is the most flexible, and powerful plataform I have seen for charting - 100% programmable, backtesting, and portafolio tracking included.
YOu may want to do further research to see what fits your bill.
good luck
