Discrepancies between FTSE feeds

I started using ADVFN's feed in Quotetracker yesterday but I have noticed that the data is somewhat different to Yahoo. For example, Yahoo is showing a momentary breach of 4500 at around 8:30 this morning but according to ADVFN it got no closer than 4502. As I write, Yahoo is showing FTSE advancing from 4499 to 4506 but ADVFN is showing it pretty static.

Of course ADVFN is streaming .... and Yahoo might be a snapshot but surely the candlesticks should still show the highs & lows of that 10 minutes, especially when I'm refreshing every 60 seconds.

Is one wrong or is it just different ways of displaying data ??
 
low on my advfn is 44929.2 if that helps. YOu sure you ADVFN isnt delayed???
 
According to their website, it's realtime ... but I must admit that doesn't appear to be the case !!
 
unless you pay it will be streming but delayed but I think 10-15 mins where Yahoo can be refreshed very min
