Thanks for the info! I don't plan on giving up equities, entirely.
Even though the charting features are very weak, my streamer (Schwab StreetSmart Pro) does everything in real-time, as it should. The big negative is that it won't pull up a chart for any currency. It identifies the symbol as a currency, but no chart pops up. Bummer. So perhaps I'll try a StockChart freebie account, first?...for my initial FOREX dabblings, anyway.
