One other feature which I saw at Omega World which I liked is global
variables will be part of the product.
On your point number 1 this means I will be able to include VB code as part
of a system/indicator to speed process or add precision?
Has anything been added in terms of improving automation capability? If you
try and automate repetitive TradeStation actions some are easy because you
can simply automate keystrokes. Others are more difficult because they
require mouse movements. For example something I would like to do is
automate optomization to apply the same optomization to multiple charts.
(Chartscanner is not an option because the charts include Data2 which is
different for each of the charts) Can you shed any light on whether
automation capability will be improved?

>Here are a few of the things TS 5.0 will feature:
>
>1.) DCOM Compliant (translation: works with anything made by Microsoft
>(Excel, Word, Access, Visual C++, Visual Basic, etc.).
>
>All windows (OptionStation, TradeStation, Excel, etc) can exist in ONE
>WORKSPACE - I can now write a program using Visual BASIC that, for example,
>shows me a window of some data or calculations I'm interested in... And I
>can drop that Window right into my TradeStation workspace and save it as
>part of that workspace (ActiveX).
>
>2.) A new type of bar called an "Activity Bar". These bars can be plotted
>alongside price bars (to the right or left of them). The Activity Bar is
>defined in Easy Language just like an indicator would be. Basically, an
>activity bar is a way to watch something which occurs "within" a price bar.
>For example, you could watch change in bid-ask by plotting changes in bids
>and asks as a sort of indicator next to a price bar. Or you
>could plot the up ticks and down ticks. Or you could plot up volume vs.
>down volume occurring within a bar.
>Very similar to Market Profile.
>
>3.) True 32-bit and designed for multi-processor systems (translation:
>works better with 32-bit operating systems (Win 95/98/NT), no more 64k
limit
>on Easy Language systems, unlimited number of symbols in the GlobalServer
>portfolio, millions of data points may be loaded into a chart, and lots
more
>speed).
>
>4.) A number of new built in functions, indicators, etc.
>
>5.) All new server (translation: symbol settings are not overwritten when
>you update the symbol universe, can track 200,000 symbols in real time, an
>"enterprise" edition available to serve multiple clients over a network,
>just about any data vendor can be used with the "data manager". Automatic
>downloads can store prices in a number of user-selectable formats).
>
>6.) Easy Language features: Easy Language can be used on Options Station.
>Bid/ask can be referenced in EL. System testing down to the tick level.
