It's very expensive I think. But why don't you change your broker?

I think this is a better option as many provide such facilities free of charge now.

Using excel for technical analysis is not recommended (not that it cannot be done), rather I suggest that you invest in a technical analysis software. A good software can be purchased around US$279. It is worth investing, considering the rich information that is available just by click of a mouse. Of course you must update it on daily basis.

Thanx for your clarification:)

The software that I use doesn't update when the markets opens. I use EOD data to update it daily.

I can remember there was a discussion in this forum regarding the live update and the software that handles CSE. If you search you may find it.
