TS2000i and Metastock



PureBytes Links

Looks like I'm up a creek without a paddle.  For those of you who use data in
Metastock format - this is what I received from Omega today.  Guess they get an "A"
for honesty <sigh>.  Robyn

Dear Robyn,

TradeStation 2000i, Service Pack 1, is not currently compatible with the new
Year2000 compliant version of the Equis Downloader data in Metastock format.
We are working towards capability. At this time, there is no time frame for
when this will happen.

There is no security block for the Omega Research 2000i series of products.
You will be able to install them on both your desktop and laptop. However,
although it is physically possible to install it on multiple machines, it
may be in violation of our licensing agreement. I do not have a copy of the
licensing agreement so I cannot verify this.

Sincerely,
Melody A. Blais

Hi Melody - I went to the presentation in Fort Lauderdale on Saturday - and
although several Omega representatives seemed confused on this issue - Mike
Burke told me that this was the case.  I assume that if I'm an EOD user -
I'll
be able to use the new Y2K compliant version of the Equis Downloader to
download
data in Metastock format which will be read seamlessly by TradeStation
2000i.
Is this correct?

Also - I understand that TradeStation 2000i will not have a dongle - or any
other kind of hardware "safety lock" - and that I'll be able to install it
on
the two computers I use (my desktop and my notebook) without any problems.
Is
this correct as well.  Thanks for this information.  Robyn
