Hello,
Currently I am using IB data but have had some problems with its quality. Often the real time vs. historical data does not match up. This can lead to changing market positions on the charts when one loads up MC vs. the day before.
Can anyone recommend and good quality data provider they have been using successfully? I am trading ETFs only.
Thanks.

Re: Data Recommendation
It is pretty common for our customer to use IQFeed for charting and route orders to IB. eSignal provides data of a good quality as far as know. Can't say anything bad about others though.

IQfeed is excellent, I've been using it for several months now- I suggest that you sign up for a free 1 week trial and see if it suits your needs..

Re: Data Recommendation
TO_trader, you will need to set up Symbol Mapping manually, when you switch to a different data provider in future.
