    eSignal Announces Redesigned, Upgraded LiveCharts
    Enhanced LiveCharts Links With Quote.com's Streaming, Real-time Data Feeds and Now Charts International Markets, Popular Currency Spot Markets, Includes Enhanced Features, Add-Ons, a Fresh Design, and Runs Entirely on the eSignal Data Network

    HAYWARD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 5, 2008--eSignal, the desktop solutions division of Interactive Data Corporation (NYSE: IDC) and a leading provider of streaming, real-time financial market data, news, analytics and decision-support tools for professional and individual traders, today announced upgrades to its LiveCharts(R) product. Dramatically redesigned, LiveCharts is more feature-rich and powerful than ever. LiveCharts offers users Web 2.0 functionality via eSignal's social networking site and also links with the newly enhanced Quote.com. Running entirely on eSignal's data network, LiveCharts is powered by PlusFeed(SM) data, a low latency, consolidated data feed service from Interactive Data Real-Time Services.

    LiveCharts is an easy-to-use, java-based application that provides a window into financial markets by presenting streaming charts, portfolios and real-time news on any Web browser. With this upgrade, LiveCharts now includes a new, customizable modular interface, major international stock exchanges, the popular currency spot market Forex, in addition to data for major U.S. stocks, options and futures markets. This LiveCharts upgrade also doubles the number of technical studies and line tools available to users. In addition, many powerful new add-ons are available, including Option Chains, Market Depth, Premium News as well as QuoTrek(R), a mobile product that brings real-time quotes, charts and news to users of BlackBerries, Smartphones and other handheld devices.

    "We are excited to share the next generation of LiveCharts with our users," said Chuck Thompson, president of eSignal. "This version of LiveCharts is impressive because of its elegant interface and new features that allow anyone to easily track their portfolios, charts and news in real-time."

    Along with new tools, new market data and a redesigned interface, eSignal is combining the LiveCharts and LiveCharts Plus products into one package priced at $19.95 per month or $16.95 per month if pre-paid annually. Private label solutions are also available.

    With LiveCharts, the streaming charts are full-featured, update in real-time and allow the user to determine style, size and scale. Charts are displayable in several formats, and 18 different technical studies are available for analysis of price movement. Hot Lists alert users to significant activity; trends, including gainers and losers; heavy call and put activity; stocks with unusually high volume; and more. A detailed Quote Window displays current bid and ask, volume and tick volume. Users can also select a Time and Sales display to see trades in real-time.

      Chuck:

      And I am assuming that you are the same person as mention in the article..

      I am not discounting that eSignal hasn't done any improvements to the new version of LiveChart.. what is very fustrating for me as a trader is to be imposted a product that does work properly.. properly being functions which are normally used to trade with not working.. mainly of record keeping in the moment..

      LiveChart is a browser base charting tool.. portable and very useful for a trader such as I.. who moves around from location to location... and still able to follow and trade the market.. versa a downloaded charting software..

      But the issues that the new version has.. which all users have been subject to.. should not have occurred.. we should have been given the opportunity of using the old version along with the new.. but we were not.. it was somewhat imposed on us.. imposed being that there is no other browser base charting tool out on the market place that had the abilities and price of the old version..

      Issues aside on the new version... it is still the only browser base charting tool available.. (yes Barchart has a browser base.. but it is an inferier product and triple the price) ..for in March of this year.. I spend two full weeks looking around.. calling on brokers and traders that I knew..

      It is very frustrating to encounter the change asked of us.. and still be able to focus on the trading that I have to do..


      Just my two cents.. and thanks for responding..
