Any cheap (free) Raw Data Feed service?

[maxcshih]

Hi,

I'm new to this forum. I hope I can get answer from someone who knows about cheap (or even free) raw data feed for US stocks. Currently, I'm developing my own trading software, which includes real-time and daily charts that can display multiple technical indicators and can perform strategy simulation. Currently, I'm using a firend's account to get to the raw data feed (an http site to get the specific stock data in text format, and then writing a program to parse it), but I'm not too satisfied with that for its server is up and down quite often. Can someone point me some direction to find stock raw data feed service?


Thanks

But they are not accepting new users at the moment. I think they are upgrading to provide a higher grade (and more expensive) service. It might be worth asking or keeping an eye on it.
