If I'm no mistaken, are you really saying that OptionStation finally works?

If you trade options extensively, I can't imagine that RT III has much to
offer, so what option-software will you use? To date, I've not found
anything that's any better than what I can do in Excel.

 << File: TSPro--Good, Bad,Ugly.txt >> My trazding method is changing.  I've
become less systems oriented and more
discretionary. Using realtime scans of the stock universe to help determine
momentum plays/and "quickly developing" situations.  One of the reasons for
the change is trading is my 100% avocation now.  I don't know how long this
will last but it's profitable now.

Speaking of profits Pro Suite or TS pro do not have a canned real time
profit reporting, summary component ( no on-the-fly reporting...you need
formal strategy entry technique).  Real Tic III does...along with real time
order entry.  They also have real time options..TS pro doesn't (they say
they will in the future  but.....)

Big deal is RT III, is broker affiliated fo that you can get REAL TIME
EQUITY,INDEX,AND OPTION QUOTES FOR FREE  (with a minimum no. of trades/mo
(in small print here))

Still I miss the easy (canned) realtime alerts on trendlines and indicators
of TS Pro.

See attached for my other comments on TS Pro .

By the way I am still subscribed to TS Pro/PC quote(for the sometimes active
ProSuite module) and have not permanently moved to RT III yet, but,I will.
I'm in transition now and will miss the Option Station package now that it
finally works.  Will also miss how my hands can fly over the OR scene and
will work through the (for now) hunt and peck RT III learning curve.

Good Luck

Chad
