| Reuters Data Link...
Hi, I just bought Metastock and am looking for a data provider. Is Reuters good for stocks, futures and Forex ? Also, I want to always download the data so I can do my "stuff" offline. Can this be done using Data Link ? Thanks

Yup - I'm taking a one month feed from Reuters Datalink. After two days of exploration my feelings are: Positve - breadth of data (esp. futures & indices), integration with Downloader is good Negative - UK equity data looks like it is based on reported trades for highs & lows, so there is a lot of spikey behaviour on late reporting. Not so bad that you can't read the chart, but the data is definitely not clean like it is with ShareScope for instance ... Hope that helps a bit |

anyone here receive EOD data from reuters? I'm signed up to receive european stocks data but its now 8pm in Europe and i haven't got the data for today yet! That seems a bit slow to me. I don't want to be up until midnight analysing data just because my provider is pants. Thinking of changing suppliers |

Today Forex on Datalink is completely missing for Monday 15 June 2009 (yesterday). No reply from support as support appears to be solely US based. Thus European users have to wait for a day to get a reply (hopefully) and in the meantime no daily data for which they have paid. Depending on their eventual reply I'll be looking into moving suppliers as this data is essential for my analysis. |

Maybe at least worth having a backup plan. What is the data you're missing?
