that's another thing that they have to do:
multiple symbol or porfolio optimization.
as far as full autoexecute by omega, that's not
the case. they would not want to do that.
the ultimate decision making process should be
up to the trader to make. all they can provide you
with a tool to get the best possible automation
in trade execution, which is not available yet.
my main interest in tradestation functionality and
not in the execution side of it. if i want a full
automation in execution i can do that outside of
tradestation.
bilo.
