Will they do it properly to help make it the superior product of choice? Or
just throw in a few bells and whistles, so that it really only has basic
testing capabilities but they can advertise that it has portfolio testing?
Will they be smart and look to other products on the markets and try to
replicate and improve upon what already exists?

At a recent TradeStation seminar we were told that TS 9.0 will have
portfolio analysis capabilities.
Cheers.

They are the major problems it has. There are add-ons to correct the above,
but they are clunky and the solutions are slow.
Unless you are running a portfolio of trading models on multiple futures
markets, you really cannot comprehend the fundamental and critical
importance of being able to see the affects your research has at the
portfolio level. The most obvious example/error that most people will make
is dismissing a trading model because it loses a small amount of money. On a
portfolio level it may have entirely different ramifications.
On a one market/one model basis though, Tradestation is an excellent
product, and in fact one of the best.

So having read all the comments on the subject, I ask: What is wrong
with TS8.x.
