I and others have had errors when TS2000i tries to calculate the advanced
strategy performance report when using more than about 300k bars.  This is
the "error adding price, date sequence out of order" error -- even though
there is nothing wrong with the dates and it can only be fixed (as far as I
know) by reducing the number of bars.

P.S.  Did everyone see my interview in the October issue of Stocks and
Commodities?  It's the "Survivors" article.  :-)  Thank you, John Sweeney.
