Dear Tomasz,
There is no "FastTrack" plug-in in my version. I went "plug-ins" and
find no FastTrack.
I always try to do the obvious, and perhaps that is why I do not
follow the software. After reading the quoted statement in my previous
post, I went to the help home page and searched for FastTrack, that
took me to http://www.amibroker.com/fasttrack.html where I see the
price. Maybe that is not current information, but how would I know
that. Keep in mind, I was following the quoted statement in my
previous post.
I have tried the obvious: Use the search engine in the Help page and I
found it useless.
Finally, I was not given a trial period. If I can prove that, can I
get my money back?
Best,
Amour
