Ensign provides a refresh service that updates nightly.&nbsp; It used to

In a nutshell, I think Ensign is great. There is a level of customer support

to be added to the software within a few weeks, if not days. Of course,
it depends on what you are looking for, though.

for futures data. But if your system is solid and doesn't crash, that shouldn't

Brent:

No, I got your point.  The problem is people complain but when it comes
to our love of cars, most of us will pay the price because of the
convince factor. I remember an old saying that someone told me a long
time ago.  Gas is probably the cheapest expense you will have when
operating a car.  Consider the price of insurance and depreciation.
