RE: Re[2]: Simple showme misreads "input"

Jimmy, I have been running the @ESZ3 and @NQZ3 from DTN satellite in the GS
stock category since September and the trade volume looks correct.  One
negative in doing this is finding fill in data.  It would have to come from
another GS with the eminis configured as stocks because futures data will
not import into the stock category.  Or it would have to be converted from
asci to .xpo with one of those converters.
