Bloomberg

Can anyone tell me what the Bloomberg Professional system is? I tried contacting them but never heard from them.

What is it? What does is it supply? How much does it cost? Is it really worth it?

Tks
ps: What computer/specs what you recommend for active trading?

no one will get back to you from bloomberg as they wont waste their time with some dupe who doesnt have any initiative - and therefore unlikely have the money to afford their product

anyway - youre better off with reuters

SPC - it's used by the banks and costs thousands. If you trade fixed income products and you're punting SERIOUS money it's worth it, but I'd guess cost is somewhere in the region of £20k p.a. What do you trade? You're almost certainly not going to need 99% of its functionality.

Tks Gamma, I trade UK equities, very soon will start US. Cost is usd1700 per month to lease the system+exchange fees. Yeah, not really worth it for me. What about their news service, is it the same that's on TV? I'm getting Proquote as I trade mostly on news and a few basic indicators and level 2. What do u use?
