Sorry if my facts are incorrect. I never intend to post other than
the truth...

I said I had never tried the product and was just quoting my
understanding of how it works, based upon dozens of posts by other
who have used it and from my experience with the data-on-demand
system used by Quote.com's QCharts.

As a former software developer, I am one of those weird people who
try to understand the underlying architecture of a software product
so that I can then predicts it's strengths and weaknesses. All
software products have strengths and weaknesses based upon how they
are designed. By understanding what tradeoff were made, you can
predict the likely performance. Of course, they never tell you what
these tradeoffs were so you have to unravel them on your own...

If there are errors in my understanding, I would sure like to know
it. Usually, by my posting something, other people with other
information will post corrections and we can converge upon the true
facts.

I can assure you that we all would certainly like to keep using
TradeStation forever and regret what appears to actions by TRAD that
might make it difficult for us to do so.

Hopefully, it is just a misunderstanding and all will be great...
