I thank all the listers who contributed to my query on list of must
have books. I have long been pondering on buying an add-on product to
Metastock and staying with one 'Guru', so to speak.
The Super Companion of Martin Pring is an example as Mr Pring is widely known.
If you have some experience of Martin Pring's Super Companion to
metastock, please give me your assessment. Without sounding
offensive, do you put bread on the table using this system.
Best regards,
desmond
