What I am finding productive, is using TradeStation for system
development, refining and testing using static data, and then
adapting the final work to MetaStock for implementation.  It's
not without pain, but it seems to give me the best of both worlds
--  the flexibility, power and ease of coding of Easy Language
(really nice for testing a variety of filters and position-based exits)
and the stability and intuitiveness of MetaStock Pro.
