Clyde,

Thanks for your thoughtful remarks. They are helpful.

Why though don't you just use TS6 now that it's cleaned up? I do understand that your ASCII routines keep the workload down for TS2K. Is it just that you are used to TS2K, and it has some operational differences from TS6. In other words, familiarity? Or is it some more essential difference?

Thanks again.

Eliot

The data on demand facility certainly removes much of (if not all) the
hassle associated with having data current for evaluation or trading.
 
Many routines have been rewritten and although originally were done
rather badly that seems to have been corrected.
 
If I could  use ONLY TS2K or ONLY TS6 then I definitely would take TS6.
 
However, what I do is run TS6 realtine on one machine during the
day and develop on TS2K on another machine.  I have written
routines to allow me to keep certain ASCII data files up to date
using TS6 so I don't have to have another data source for data
for my TS2K operations.

Subject: [RT] TradeStation 6/Metastock Pro..

Anyone have any comments on their experiences and satisfaction (or lack of)
using TradeStation 6, having previously used TS4 or TS2K?

I'm not interested in their brokerage, just the program's functionality,
bugs, and quality of support as a data streaming product in comparison with
previous versions.

In terms of customer and technical support anyway, to quote the Talking
Heads, I'm concerned that it is.. "same as it ever was".

But one never knows what a new name and glossy website image brings with it
though I'm betting it is not much.

Optimistically,

Eliot

PS: In addition, if anyone has any comments on Metastock Pro and its
viability in conjunction with Qfeed, or just as a technical tool, I'd be
grateful for those thoughts as well.

Any serious limitations or unique capabilities in the package? How does it
compare to Tradestation in any of its incarnations?

Thanks to all.
