Hello LScharpen,
I would suggest that the whole purpose of using 7 is that the system
"simply" compares what it's participants were doing yesterday.
Also in TS2k you have to make some radical symbol universe setup
changes to make thing align, not so much the case in TS4. There are
only so many combinations, I know I tried them all. Find one that
suits you and use it. Hint you can modify the start and end times in
the global server at the portfolio level. Then the original universe
settings can be left alone and the data will still be there as normal
should you ever wish to switch back. Back to lurking and not posting
on this further.
In fact OB is becoming a worn out topic that is as interesting as bass
boat ups. Speaking of which I plan to show off my new rig soon when I
take some pics.
