  • If you want live updates then I assume you would be looking to do some serious trading not jut the odd bit of buying and selling, in which case you might be best talking to either Reuters or Bloomberg. Depending on how much you want to spend, either company can hardwire you in their own systems to your house, so you can get live info, and loads of other services provided by them.
  • I noticed a link on yahoo for real time now

    :rotfl::rotfl:yeah right, you might want to pay Bloombergs rates if you trading a hedgefund, if the OP reckoned £14 a month was high, but I guess you had a point to make.
    Hope for the best.....Plan for the worst!

  • Does the £14 plan from LSE give L2 info? Otherwise, it seems that the service provided are available in most general stock accounts in any major bank.
  • Sorry for the delay guys and gals; I get mine via my cfd account, and using the L2 Dealer app.

    £6 a month from the LSE is what I pay, but refunded if I trade

    Wait, you pay £6 a month for L2 from the LSE direct? Not sure how that links to your CFD comment, but I'm stunned. That's incredibly cheap. Have you got a link to the service and fees?
    Mmmm, credit crunch. Tasty.

    I'm curious to find if anyone knows whether I can download or look up a website that shows live stock market screens (including companies listed in the FTSE 100 index) rather than relying on a 10 - 15 minute delay from most sites like Google/Yahoo Finance etc...

    Is it possible?

    Thanks.

    Best and cheapest thing to do is open an account with IG Index or other major spreadbetting firm.

    They're regulated by FSA so have to treat you with kid gloves for your first 3 months or so, teaching you all you need to know about markets, inns outs, upps downs and whatnot.

    You can trade for 10p a point during this time, or not trade if you want.

    Anyway, during this time you'll get access to live market price feeds, which is what you're looking for a this point in time......

    In 6 months time they may boot you off for not trading, but hey, in the meantime you've got 6 months live streaming data for free.....

    It's a money saving thing

    :money:

    On a lighter note, with share share prices dropping like stones, won't the time soon come when they have to pay us to watch them doing it?
