Hello Frank,
talked to Micheal about your "advertised" problem. Apparently in Beta test
TSTrades could not deal with German names on some of your Buttons. Michael
sent you a reply saying he would fix this and he was very interested in
overcoming the problem. Apparently, the solution was not difficult.
However, you never replied back !!!!!!!!
So, I think your post is quite unwarranted. The aim of BETA testing is to
provide feedback to developers so they can fix problems. If you don't communicate
how can things be fixed ?

This software is not done for users with an international version of Tradestation
! Don't spend to much time on this - you will not be so happy as announced !
Best Regards
