Hello, all

I am trying to develop a real time market scanner. I think there two ways
to do it.

1) get real time data --> import into my database --> do scanning at my
local computer. However, IB TWS has a limit of 100 symbols at same
time. Is there any way I can circimvent it?

2) write a scanning program with my own codes --> send to a serve has
real time and historical data --> get back signals.
Any campanys provide such service? Lots of market scanners avaible
now only have pre-defined creteria I can choose. I can??t get what I want.


Thanks a lot

I have been thinking about doing that with Yahoo:


The price is good ($11/month), but the interfact would be primitive.

Good luck!

Richard, check out these projects - they may have tools to fetch data
from Yahoo or other sources...



Also, if you goto www.sourceforge.net - or this link:



There are all kinds of open source tools to fetch from Yahoo.
Probably fetch from other sources...

And... Check these out - they may have some stuff built in that
already does what you want...
