Hi
I have been looking at the website of ActiveTick.com which seems to offer market data including FX, NYSE and Nasdaq at a very low price, and I couldn't find any mention of them good or bad on forums so I think they may be brand new (but I may have missed something). Currently they have only Windows-based software, but they promise a Java-based system 'soon' at which point I will be interested in trying out the market data API service (my lab is a Unix only zone). I'm only interested in an unrelenting torrent of market data to nourish and train my school of robotic attack squid, not the fancy graphics and back testing for humans. Does anyone have any experience with these guys and the quality of the data yet? What business model could possibly allow them charge so little ($13/month), and still cover the exchange fees, bandwidth, and power? It certainly *looks* like a good deal...
