Here is some information in textual form I gathered from their Q&A web site(http://www.tradingrecipes.com). Here it is:

Q8: Will there be a Windows version ?
A: We are proceeding in that direction. It will probably be until 1Q-2003 before there are any announcements about the Windows version of TRADING RECIPES. But we believe that customers will be glad they purchased before any announcement.


Personally, I believe that they will come up with a Windows 2000 version before summer 2003.

Best Regards,

Udo


P.S.: Especially the following Answers retrieved from their Q&A site are important as regards Money Management:

Q9: How complex simulations can I test?
A: We have heard from customers running models consisting of 14 trading systems, each system running on 70 markets, over a time period of 20 years of data per market.

Q10: Having read Ryan Jones, Van Tharp etc, I would like to research position sizing ideas, like Fixed-Fractional, Fixed-Ration etc. Can I do that with TRADING RECIPES?
A: Yes, TRADING RECIPES is in fact uniquely positioned to let you do this kind of testing.

Q11: How does TRADING RECIPES treat drawdown and risk?
A: TRADING RECIPES treats drawdown as maximum dip in equity, not open equity. Also, having a predefined stop in your system is not critical to sizing positions as you can define risk any way you please. We like to define it as what you stand to lose. Many traders who use TRADING RECIPES, including some well known ones, define risk as some measure of volatility. It's your call.
