I didn't see this in the FAQ in comp.misc:  can anybody provide
recommendations for software to analyze stock market data?

Actually, I'm more interested in powerful plotting programs, rather
than mathematical analysis.  So, if you are doing this, what's your
preferred source of stock market data (both US and international), and
what's your preferred software to examine the data?

A bit more specifically, I'm seeing ads in, e.g., "Investor's Business
Daily" for, say, Trendsetter, Signal, TeleChart 2000, Prodigy, AIQ,
etc., all of which provide data and/or analysis software.  How is the
software? What about non-conventional analysis, such as looking at the
data in the frequency domain (fourier analysis); non-conventional
plotting/graphing, and so on.  Anybody in this group try to look at
the data using fractal/chaotic techniques? Somewhere I read about a
few National Lab people starting a company to do this...

If you email replies, I'll summarize in 2-3 weeks.  Followups have
been directed to misc.invest
