Its true.
But if they answer to us for a year or two, we can work. I use TS since
version 3 and now i make "beta testing" for
Omega Research for TS2000i because the product is full of bugs, i spent my
time and they DONT aswer to my questions.
The real problem is TradeLab makers had tested the product ???
P.S. After 1 Year and after many patch (with bug) i use TS4 for trading
because TS2000i is UNUSABLE.
Now Omega Research work on new ts.com but i think that before release new
products thay have to correct old product.
my own opinion......
