Is there somewhere to easily get a list of symbols for an index that is in the format suitable for making a new Dataset. I'm thinking of things like SP-100, SP-500, SP Smallcap 600, ETFs, etc. Or does one need to just methodically enter them in by hand?

Thanks,

Dave

Why not create that S&P-500 DataSet (for example) using classification groups in Yahoo! provider?

So far, I have just been using Fidelity data since I am a Fidelity customer. Would you recommend that I switch to Yahoo data or that I also use Yahoo data in addition to Fidelity data?

Thanks,

No, my suggestion was that you could use the Y! classification groups to quickly get the symbols and then copy/paste when creating a new Fidelity data set. I think you've answered your question - "methodically enter" them one way or another.

Are you a Fidelity customer? You could find the daily TRIN (no intraday) in Market Sentiment DataSet.

Yes I am fidelity customer.
Is there any other site paid/unpaid where I can download intra day trin and tick data?

Thanks,
