And do you realize exactly how expensive it is for a provider like Barchart to obtain that index data and redistribute it. It is very expensive. Beyond what you can imagine. They pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to the exchanges for fees and connectivity (This would be for all markets, including stocks, futures, indexes, options). The US30 is an essentially free alternative. So you are not really paying for the true index. This is the point. And exchanges continue to raise their fees to data providers. Even though economically things are not going well in the US and Europe. For the ICE, we have to collect 90 USD a month from each user who wants to have ICE real-time data even though they may just look at one or two symbols on that exchange. If data were free, we would happily redistribute all of it ourselves and get it direct from the exchanges or a reputable provider. We are actually starting to do this now, but this is only in cooperation with a data provider like Barchart. We could never possibly do this on our own. It is just way too expensive.
