RE: Tradestation 10-Yr Historical Data

I've spoken with TS tech support about this a few times. They said that the
original delivery date was set by marketing and it wasn't realistic, but
it's on it's way RSN.

In the meantime my systems continue to perform, as I, in my blissful
ignorance, edge ever closer to the yawning abyss that only more data can
save me from.

Or can it?

As I said, it's all a matter of priorities - and, perhaps, the definition of
"pester".  Perhaps I did resort to a bit of hyperbole;  after all, I've sent
TS only a single e-mail (a simple request, not a vitriolic tirade) on the
issue and that, in the eyes of most, would not qualify as "pestering".

In the final analysis, however, it is a question of how acutely the need for
this data is felt by list members, and if few have inquired or urged TS on
the matter, then it's not surprising that it is being delayed.

Carroll
