Mike :
 
" I intend to daytrade with E-Signal and MS looks like the 
right answer"
 
I am doing this already (from Belgium) and i like to have 
contact with people with
the same "set-up"  to help each other with problems which 
might happen with
Esignal and Realtime MS.
 
One tip Michael :  join the esignal CHAT-daytraders- 
room  (my id : dorusXX)
very nice helpfull people there and laughs are free 
:)
(You can reach it through <A 
href="http://www.esignal.com";>www.esignal.com  amd then : support 
(below in the page).
Then look at Esignal chat (first subscribe).
 
As far as i know i am there the only one with MSrealtime and 
Esignal.
(others only use Esignal)
 
Problems for now :  
 
a)  esignal starts data at about 3.00 PM  (european 
time) and
realtime MS only starts at 3.30 PM (european 
time).
 
b) MS  realtime is a very heavy application so donot run 
it with many apps
    at the same time.   (Tip 
-2)
 
c) Kevin :  how are you related to Metastock ?  
(sorry but i am a little suspicious here).
    no offense.
 
 
Thanks
 
See you in the chat room.
 
Theo Lockefeer.

  I have ordered MS 7.03 outright and have yet to 
  receive it, but, I have tried SuperCharts and looked at Tradestation. How much 
  does anyone need to do? 
  MS is highly intuitive and easy to use. This is 
  paramount. You will see on this forum, lots of help is available. Also, the 
  staff at Metastock is quite helpful.
  I intend to daytrade with E-Signal and MS looks 
  like the right answer.

    Hi,
    I'm currently trying out MetaStock Pro (ver7) on a 30 
    day trial basis.  (I trade full-time and am primarily 
    a short-term swing trader, 2-5 days to several 
    weeks)
     
    I'm sure many of you considered and/or tried out other 
    trading/analysis software before ultimately deciding on MetaStock 
    (MS).  
     
    Can anyone offer an opinion of:
     
    1) how MS stacks up against other competitors (i.e., 
    Omega Tradestation, AIQ, OmniTrader (which I realize is a "horse of a 
    different color"), etc.).
     
    and, 
    2) what was it about MS that ultimately persuaded 
    you to purchase it as opposed to one of its competitors.
     
    Thx in advance.
     
    ~ Kevin
