good point. However, if you have emailed them suggestions in the past and still
have them filed somewhere, it wouldn’t take much effort to send them off again.
That’s what I’m going to do. And then see where the pieces fall.
<span
style='font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial'>For me
personally, the next major release (whenever that may be) is going to be the
make or break. If they really improve the program, I’ll stay forever and
continue upgrading, buying their addins and data…If they put all their effort
into making it a “Tradestation.com” offering (making it an online subscription
using only their proprietary data and brokerage house of their choice,<span
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> etc) to try to suck more $$ out of us,
I’m history. I’ll move to AmiBroker or something else. I’ve always thought
Metastock was the best charting package, but not the best analysis package.
Again, with a few improvements, done with the user (and power user) in mind, they
would be the best.

It looks like you are correct. Equis support informed me that that there
will be no details "untill something is ready to ship". I interpret
this as
a suggestion not to hold my breath :-)
Herman.
We are always working on improvements and revisions to Metastock. As for
specific new versions, release dates, or new features we don't have any
details until something is ready to ship. If you have any suggestions
you wish to make about how Metastock can be improved, send them to
suggestions@xxxxxxxxx.<font
