Re: [amibroker] How fast AmiBroker is?

If a lawsuit were filed, it should be accompanied with a motion for the 
judge to issue a summary judgement in Amibroker's favor.  This is because 
Amibroker's speed could be demonstrated with a notebook computer right in 
front of the judge at the summary hearing.  The judge would then have no 
choice but to issue a summary Judgement against Metatrader.

 In order to help mitigate the damages done to Amibroker by the false ads, 
TJ could ask the Judge to order Metatrader to pay for many corrective ads 
that Amibroker will create.  These ads would state that "WE, METATRADER" 
were  mistaken about the Speed of Amibroker, and that Metatrader knows of no 
other Stock Market software that can perform even XX% as fast of Amibroker.
