James,

Since there are no arrays available you can't just "code this into
the program".

In my opinion it's just a matter of choice to make bid/ask arrays
available, but AFAIK none of the programs do this. No offense to the
developers, but probably they all assume that we want to create some
TA bid/ask wizardry, not realizing there are some very down-to-earth
applications of bid/ask, like option trading where bid/ask is really
all you got, "last" may have occurred hours or even days ago.

And yes, it IS a nightmare, despite $150 I'd stick with Marketdelta:)
