                Do I remember it correctly that data was about $200/year just a few weeks ago (or was it $240?)?  Now it's $299 according to the website.

                That's really interesting, as I've read a lot about forex trading at https://www.bestforexbrokersuk.com/ and I've decided to start my education. I've already chosen a broker and I also found the Metastock software and was really close to buy it, but now with that price change I will think about it. If there is no reason for it, no additional features or whatever, then it's really not good. |

Yahoo and Google have both shut down their A.P.I.s (believe it or not, this forum censors the acronym unless I add the periods) that allowed daily download of stock prices, as of last year.  MetaStock saw a good opportunity to put the squeeze to customers seeking a replacement for this data.  
 The price seems very high for simple EOD, not realtime, data to me.
