This is not true.
We have european customers that subscribed to TS6 WITHOUT opening an account.
Maybe it's a foreing privilege ( like buying TS2000i), but I do not think so.

You mean that inactive account will be charged of the $199.95 monthly fee.
Active accounts above the required # trades do not pay for the software.

Well, I would not like to consider you as a basher. But if it was your intention
to behave like one of them from what I read, your success rate is 100%.

TS6 is te future of the company and the future of its users ( data on demand,
automated trading, filtered datafeed).
Their position is understandable, and they do not have to mantain a client
software line that will be out in 4-5 years due to the new technology.

Some of them do.
The issues are easy to explain: Omega list bashing is considered here for what
it is: Bashing.

I will be retired when this will happen.
