Bad assumption. The only people interested in TS.com initially will be
stock traders as that's the only data provided. The problem is few
professional stock traders use TS, at least as their main platform,
because of its poor scanning and portfolio management capabilities. And
even if people wanted to sign up, many of them have annual contracts
with their current data providers so they won't be shopping for a new
(and unproven) data vendor until those contracts expire. They really
need to hire some traders at Omega to help them make these major
decisions.
