    Regret I cannot comment on ADVFN as I have no need to subscribe to same. The symbol INDU is correct for the Dow daily, so maybe the discrepancy is down to your converting the data from ADVFN. I can only reiterate i have not experienced any difficulty with my data flow. John

    Rookie You do not say whether you are using live or delayed prices when comparing the price in C S simulator. If the latter then no wonder you are getting the results you quote. A further point with C S simulator is the price shown against your buy price is the current bid/offer and not the...
