"And you'll get exactly what THAT trader needs. "
Take one person who understsands the lingo. Have him set up a research shop
(email lists, face to face, etc) and watch the flood of ideas come in.
Plus, any good engineer knows that you take your closest competition and use
that as an initial goal. Start with something that does what TS does (it's
a culmination and it's readily visisble and available) and then expand on
that. In fact, you take their ideas and make it better. Piece of cake.
The company doesn't have any software or technical experience that money
from another company can't buy. But you have to have good people doing the
work.

I think most individual system traders could give excellent feedback as to
what's needed in a great software package and as long as the developers see
the product as something that must evolve over time, as new ideas and
technology advances and as customer needs change, then they have a good
chance to capture the "Tradestation" market. It has to appeal to the
mechanical system trader as well as discretionary trader, be fast reliable,
accurate, flexible etc etc.
I, for one, hope they can do it, competition in trading software benefits us
all.
