<span

.NET languages

<span

color=black> I did write EXTERNAL functions for MS
using VB / VB.NET / VC7.NET    MetaStock is not limiting the
development environment, thus you can use C# as well. I am using MetaStock to
chart my system trading results and indicators. All testing is done in a &#8220;home
grown&#8221; trading harness. I have one code base, used for the MetaStock DLL
and my own application. I didn&#8217;t like the system development environment
of MS but I liked the charting etc. very much. So I get the best of both
worlds.

and you cannot develop add-ons yourself, because there is no toolkit

That is a tough market to get into, it's very
competitive.  Why would a similar system be
preferable to any of the current contenders? 
This is just one of many questions you must ask
yourself when deciding whether or not to write a
program.
