Traders: a question + an overdue thanks to Mel.
 

Hi,

First, thank you Mel. for your wise words in answer to my PM question.

Question, please: When I was daytrading in the early 90's if I wanted to look at historical price data I purchased it on a disk and then used my TradeStation charting package to view it and add indicators. I'd like to look at some Candlestick charts showing the daily price action for the main commodities, preferably a couple years worth with a 20-bar SMAC added. What's the cheapest way to do that nowadays? (I doubt I could make my ancient TradeStation program run on any of our current computers.)

Thanks, sincerely, in advance for any replies,

- Boyd

Y'know, I don't know.
 

I confess that I learn everything my poor brain can handle at finance.yahoo.com -- was never into day trading (I'm quite risk averse when it comes to money)

I would look at this site: (warning... TONS OF NASTY POPOUPS. Do not cruise without heavy popup blockage) http://metals.about.com/cs/investing/

and this subpage

Thanks for the info [DNO]
