Hey everyone I really really need some help! I need a really good, reliable real time streaming charting system. I am spreadbetting futures, and I need charts for the FTSE 100, CAC 40 & Nasdaq 100. On top of that, if possible, I would also like the futures charts for the Dax and Wall Street. I...

Hi Thanks for the tip. I looked there, but they do not do equities. hat I really want is somewhere where I can view live charts of the FTSE 100 Index future (LIFFE), the Nasdaq 100 Index Future (CME), the CAC 40 Index Future (EURONEXT) & the Dax Index Future (EUREX - DAX) as well as the stocks...

Hi, I have been viewing the futures charts on ADVFN, mainly the FTSE 100 future, but they seem to only really have charts for the UK and US markets. They are on their platinum service and costs £100/month. I know prices vary, but is this ok? The Futures I am interested in are: CAC 40 Future...

Hi, Can anybody explain to me the concept of futures??? The main problem being how to establish thier chart codes? For example on ADVFN, the ticker for the FTSE 100 Index Futures - 2004 is ZZ4. I get that the second 'Z' stands for the month, December, and the '4', the year, 2004, so the first...

RE: Ticker symbols Hi everyone. Again, I seem to have found myself stuck whilst attempting to learn spread betting. After player trading at TradIndex, I wanted to look at the indices, and thier charts real time. However, the charting system there is not so good, and they offer no tools, or...

gmca686, But from reading the posts on this site, everyone seems to think that D4F are not so good??? I will definitely go with CapitalSpreads, which i suppose I can trade with in the evening? I have to say, I quite like TradIndex;s trading platform, but now you have made me think! Damn, and I...

Actually, don't know why I didnt think of that, heard it before, very good idea. Will get on to that first thing in the morning. And Il'' come back here in a copule months to let you know which really is the best! Oh, & thanks for the info, glad that that particular discussion took place!

Ok guys FetteredChinos seems to think Tradindex are c**p, but most of you think they are ok. Finspreads are generally thought of as really really c**p (so glad that you agree, thought it was only in my imagination), and CapitalSpreads...OK??? So I'm thinking to go with either TradIndex or...

Hi So really, is the 7 free lessons any different to the course???

Ok, so Tradindex, out the window. Ive got SO many brochures, and affter reading these forums, thought that finspreads souned the best, but jeez, they are crap; so not to big on the whole initiative thing. Anyhow please could you guys give me some rating for the others' that I am looking at right...

Whats does everyone think Of TradIndex as a spread betting company? I'm with fInspreads at the moment, but am finding them absolutely useless. Thanks for any help.

Amongst all the madness and bickering here, might I remind everybody here, especially those who like to point out that some points made are 'basic', which I agree with, indeed they are; that this particular forum is aptly named 'First Steps' definition being: "Thinking you might want to try...

Back to my original question when i started this thread. Can't remember who, it was so long ago, but somebody recommened ADVFN for live streaming charts of UK shares. Like the look of it, subscribed to the free thing, going to subscribe to the UK Silver Trader, its only £30/m. Easy to use, got...

I think for now, its kind of a hobby - i have time to study and learn it. When i finally do underatand, i can paper trade, and only once i have mastered that, will i be placing SMALL bets - maximum of 50p per point, until i have mastered that. So, i won't be losing much - I hope. Ive benn saving...
