what time frames you wanna chart? if you investing and need daily charts OST free charts is all you need. Why waste money if you starting out. Like buying a ferrari when you still learning to drive.

Hey farina....use Omnitrader for end of day trend analysis and use IG Index for intra day live feed charts. Remember your charting package is critical.....should be able to work on it off line and save changes, draw trend lines, insert key indicators etc. Get the right package, don't take a knife to a gun fight.

don't take a knife to a gun fight indeed .. but equally don't take a bazooka to a fist fight .. first know what you want to do, then find the software ..
