This thread compares the difference in performance, capabilities ,utility, pros and cons of importing feeds from our existing terminal of Odin or PIB versus paid feeds like TDI, MDP,etc
Now many of us started of using a variety of softwares for different purposes like:
For End Day graphs with Technical Indicators and analyses: ChartNexus, iCharts EOD
For Intraday : Profit Indicator , Google Finance, Yahoo Finance
Live Intraday Charts: Google Finance, India Bulls PIB
Bhav downloader: GetBhav
But in the end we would want to graduate to a single software to simplify things and to integrate all our techniques into a single software .
Today there are several options like the popular Amibroker, Metastock, Meta Trader etc.
Nowadays besides selecting the software there are many feed vendors who supply data like InvestBulls,TDI, MDP etc But just how good are they and can the same be achieved by importing the feed out of Odin or PIB.
Now I would like to clarify a few issues:
1. Do these vendors of paid feed provide historical backfill facility and can this be obtained from PIB or Odin.
2. Quality of data
3. Speed of updation of live feed.
4. Freezing issues during periods of high volatility.
5. Level of seamless integration of particular feed with a particular software. i.e some may be better suited to one software than another.
Agreed that all users may not have even Odin or PIB to compare with their paid feeds into these softwares but by contributing experiences we can take a decision when the gains are compelling enough to shift.
