 If I had of known before, that this software was just targeted to hedge
funds with big pockets and not meant for me and others traders.  These posts
probably would have never even started.  I am glad Ivan Figueredo pointed
this out.  Now the average trader doesn't even have to waste their time even
looking at the software.
 Also, why would you think an already profitable trader with a good method
need more power than they already have?
