futures quotes

i used to like the moore research site for a quick overview of all the futures markets. [currencies, pm's, financials, indexes] since they shut down their public site the best i've found is:

http://www2.barchart.com/mktcom.asp?code=BSTK

there are big lags in the postings there, however. anyone got anything better?

Another one I like and refer back to from time to time for backtesting.

The ultimate useful link of which I am aware.

One of the iTulip founders, bart, who signs his messages with his website address, maintains http://www.nowandfutures.com/bookmarks.html which is an extensive listing of links. It is overwhelming, and who can imagine the time it has taken to get it so organized.

If there is a question you cannot even ask, look at bart's listings and you will find the answer.
