Why doesn't anyone check their "facts"? This is how false rumors get
started...
I just called Omega (excuse me, "TradeStation Technologies"!) and was told
that they have no plans to either discontinue or charge for History Bank.
The fact that yesterday's data are unavailable (presumably the root of this
rumor) is due to "technical problems" which they expect to resolve today
(we'll see...). The service is, apparently, as alive as ever but no more
reliable.

This is very bad news indeed. I have relied on HB for the data in my backup
server. I was also told by Omega in December that it would continue at
least
through February. The data was not clean and yet I would have been glad to
pay
something for it.
