RE: Telescan

Lionel, I am a satisfied user of QP and am going to wean myself from TS
data- right now I mainly use it for intraday looks at work, and to feed AIQ.
But QP converts to Metastock, as you know, and has the terrific Virtual
Metastock capability too.

Advanced GET is going to go to QP direct read, and QP and AIQ are working
together to get an easy data interface going.

Gann Trader reads MS and maybe someday it will read QP or QP will convert
for GT.

All in all, I feel close to being ready to dump Telescan and Worden Bros in
favor of QP only.
