…and I ask
if you are happy with that response? “Why on earth not?” is my
answer.
You are 100%
happy with MS – good for you. However, there ARE a number of bugs and a long
list of possible improvements Equis could make.
Eduardo’s
email suggested they care about these issues. I want him to prove it by telling
us which of them they are working on right now. I also want to know if they are
interested in compiling a ‘register of gripes’ of some sorts and a future
release schedule as, for example, Amibroker has with it’s ‘wish list’ links on
the front page of it’s website. Very dynamic and very forthright. Is that too
much to ask from a company in who’s product I’ve invested such a serious amount
of time and money and wish to remain loyal to, despite my better
insticts?
So Eduardo,
now’s your chance to prove you guys really are interested in the serious
trader.
Last time I
wrote to Equis support about one particular gripe (lack of support for
E-signal’s international tick servers) I was told I could have my money back if
I wanted…any change of heart or does that offer still
stand?
Or the gripe
before that (lack of ability to plot >60 minute intraday charts) I was told
they were working on it. What’s the status?
Or the
perennial ones regarding loop functions, system tester bugs, limits on
variables, space restrictions, etc etc etc…

MetaStock v10
hey teclogeo..... i had both called and emailed equis about
this....
was told on the phone
there will be some updates later for meta 9,
but i didn't ask what.... below is the email reply.....
i'm currently using meta pro 9 for
esignal and have had nothing but
excellent results..... once you toss in the contributions of
those
like jose, roy larson and such, its
difficult for me to see a
single negative.......h

While we are allowed to discuss very few details of products
in
development, I can say without
any doubt whatsoever that there are
absolutely no plans to "lock" our data. Future versions
of
MetaStock in development fully
support our data partners just as our
previous versions have. Locking out our data partners
would be a
great disservice to our
customers and would only be shooting
ourselves in the foot. I can guarantee that the rumors
you have
heard are completely
false.
In regards to your
broad market question, yes, you can download BM
Data from Reuters while still subscribing to eSignal.
To our
Professional customers, we
offer the index information as a stand
alone package, which runs at $9.95 a month ($107.40
yearly). This
data would need
to be downloaded with the Downloader software.
I hope this helps clear things up for you. If you have
any other
questions, please let me
know.
Thank you,
Kevin
