So, do not accept.
Do you think that shouting with the wolfes will bring something new for the
next week?

Ah ah....
An acceptable solution is something that works as expected.
I do not see the relationship with your problem and my web site.

I'm not tired of it.
Tired of pretentious developers, certainly.
I use it for trading and I'm satisfied with it.
Try to downgrade to some modesty and TradeStation will fit your needs as is.

You may consider to stop to trade if it's too painful to add 250 contracts to
your portfolio.
I seriously doubt that you are able to trade 250 markets in realtime with your
TradeStation.
Here, in France, we are so stupid that we cannot trade more than 5-10 markets
realtime.
We trade only two.
But with profitability.

You shoud check the archives, and read Melody Blais answer.
James Mazzula proposed the workaround after me and came with a better
solution.
This has been validated by the official Omega answer on THIS list.
If you are not sure you can do a backup, its easy and automated.
Or try Telechart 2000.
Now, it's a free software.
And Yk2 compliant.
I do not like your appreciation on my web site, because it's ambiguous.
So while I was typing this, I attempted to load the new version.
Maybe it will work tomorrow.
I seriously doubt that you will currently find a TS solution provider site
like this one.
Free trial versions, and not so simple software (or we are really stupid,
enough to ignore our poor state, this is why I'm happy...)
When you will be able to develop things like we did here, please let me know.
For the moment, this is only gossip and nothing real.
I have said that all our TradeStation tools will be able for free trial.
The difference between you and me is that I say what I think, and I do what I
say, and I'm not only typing on Omega list the same and same complaints.
Life is like this.
You may adapt to survive.
You should do the same with TradeStation if you really need it to work.
If you are trading 250 markets, why do you make a so dramatic story of a piece
of software that you own since 1992, and that should be paid with you
benefits, I hope for you.
I feel that most of the Omega yk2 bashers have a real problem with money.
Doing so much noise for a problem that still not really exist is symptomatic.
If life was like you expected that it should be, trading would not exist (
everybody wil agree on commodities prices, so no need of futures) and you
would not see millions of people die for things that are more simple that your
250 contracts to add to the portfolio, and your yk2 laments.
You should travel in some far east or african countries, then you will rethink
of your current TS problems differently.
Their only problem is to know if they will be themselves Y2000 compliant, even
tomorrow compliant in some cases.
They have no Omega-List to claim their distress, but only their lack of
anything.
Do you hear me ?
