Read this WHOLE message ESPECIALLY THE
BOLD, this is the replay of MS. And in his first message
he asks me what I really want in the future version. I told him it is not
up to me alone, that is why I told him if I could post this so that THE
WHOLE GROUP can respond to this. So why don't you post <SPAN
class=380233923-31032001>here what you like to see
in future version. So just maybe we
can get our dreams come through after all

First and foremost, I would like to clarify one thing. The performance
systems are not password protected, neither are the experts, neither are
the
explorations, the only thing which are password protected are the
Performance Explorations. These are the explorations that function
similar
to system tests. Everything else is open.
Unfortunately, Robert Ms response was a little misleading, but I double
checked with the systems and I can get into all of the without a
password,
except the Performance Explorations.

Jeff,
I didn't say those systems are bad, example the one from Murphy is a
killer.
But I believe things like that should be for sale SEPARATE AS ADD-ON.
Because people trade in different styles and it's not because I like the
Murphy style that everyone else likes it too. And then you have to pay
for
tons of systems (WHICH ARE PASSWORD PROTECTED SO IT'S A BLACK BOX FOR US
because there is no way to adjust or use part of the things in our own
systems) which are useless and just wasting space on our HD.
It's really hard to believe that you even took the MS user consideration
into creating your new upgrade. Because if you look at the MS newsgroups
I
find hardly any evidence of this and it is of course easy to say that
tons
of OTHER USERS who are not on the lists asked for this. But I believe
your
core users are IN MAJORITY here one the lists because they are here day
in
day out years and years upgrade after upgrade the other users where you
are
talking about probably buy the product worked with it for a while and
then
throw it on the shelve and move on.
About those suggestions I heard already a million times, that is why
I would
by this one ask your permission to post this E-mail on the MS list
because
as I told you before who am I to tell you what I want. That is why
I
believe it is much better to see what ALL user post and use that as
an
average. But I know for last time when you posted something
similar but
(didn't used the results) that two main things jumped right out 1 TESTING
ON
MULTIPLE SECURITIES ON ALL SYSTEMS ALSO THE ONE YOU CREATE YOUR SELF 2
ABLE
TO ENTER EXIT THROUGH REAL STOP/ LIMIT ORDER IN THE SYSTEM TESTER I
believe
those two little thing people have been asking for year after year
upgrade
after upgrade.
Greetings
