Claude-
Thanks for your review. Having dumped Reuters, I also use TC2000 for EOD,
and it serves me just fine too. I simply use one main watchlist which is
now up to a couple of hundred, and export that to Metastock. Although I have
Pro, I don't currently use the real time function, but in the past have just
about had to use E Signal. Although there are some on the list who have
figured out a way to use another real time source, I haven't tried it yet.
Sincerely-
Ron

Ron,
I just received 7.2 this past week and haven't put it through all its paces
yet.
But from what I have garnered so far, I'm happy with many of the new items
and the seamless way it operates. I don't use the real-time version (Pro)
and I
don't use Reuters Data Link. (I get my data from TC2000 and QP2.)
Just speaking for myself, of course, and it serves my purposes perfectly.
Yes, I believe 1987 was the first year it was available. If not....it's
close.
I've used the software since then. I've also tried at least 30 other
charting
programs over the years and Metastock for me is still "old reliable."
Claud
P.S. I don't have any affiliation with Equis.
