About Real Time Markets
Real Time Markets serves as a sister product to your Dedicated Trader membership. It provides a "dynamic monitor" where a user can watch
20 symbols continuously updating without having to "refresh" your screen. It also provides scrolling news headlines with text
recall. You'll get Charting, Portfolios, Company Reports, Market Statistics and more with a trading account.
Technology: Unlike typical browser-based systems, Real Time Markets utilizes an active connection to monitor market data on the
server end. Real Time Markets advantage: We are able to move users from one server to another flawlessly. Their disadvantage: If you have
ever been on the internet during a federal reserve board statement, you have probably experienced the HTTP error 404, the pages slow to
fill or not filling at all.
Speed: Real Time Markets uses a push protocol rather than broadcast. Real Time Markets advantage: We are only sending you the data you are
requesting - even if you request hundreds of quotes with a single click. Their disadvantage: Broadcast feeds send all data from A
through Z, causing bottleneck during heavy trading activity.
Direct from the Source: Real Time Markets advantage: we are using the same data feed direct from the exchanges that are used by
hundreds of traders on the floor of the NYSE. Their disadvantage: Some vendors get their data feeds from a third-party vendor, which means if
that connection has problems the service will be unavailable, causing you to miss out on potentially profitable trades. And for the other
vendors who get the data from the exchanges like we do - ask them how many units they have on the floor of the exchange: their answer is
bound to be zero.
Once you experience trading with Real Time Markets, you'll wonder how you ever traded without it!
