I'm looking for a source for getting stock and options market prices on-line
for real time data analysis.  I have heard of a couple different resources.
What are my options and what will give me the best performance at a reasonable
price?  I've heard of FNN signal receivers, but I really don't know anything
about them.  Is there any way to access information via internet?  (I image
not since it would be something that needs to be broadcasted to many
destinations.

My second question is how can I perform near instantaneous transactions
of stocks and stock options?  Are there any brokers who provide a fast
enough on-line service to perform real time transactions?  If not,
what do I need to do to be able to perform such transactions
(like get a broker's license and subscribe to some market service).
An internet accessible service would ber very desirable here.

Any information would be much appreciated.
