[amibroker] Re: I think the real defect of Amibroker is charting

Just adding to the opinions here, I think AB is the king of 
backtesting and programming but I have to agree that it lacks when 
comes to charting... and I'm not talking about indicators, I'm 
talking about "charting, quality, graphics, etc" ... I've brought 
this issue up many times but noone seems to understand it... I guess 
you have to use TradesStation or even Ensign and QT to understand 
what I mean by crispy ... on the other hand, I've hard people 
comparing AB to Metastock.. now, that's silly, AB is miles away from 
Metastock , 15 times better... so, in summary, if your think is EOD 
charts and your main focus is automation, there's no better place 
than AB...
