Tom:
You may be wrong.  We are not keeping enough 
Equis people employed. While the number of employees is not under our control, 
there are not enough Equis employees to bring this program up to 
snuff.

  You receive a warm fuzzy feeling when you think of 
  the Equis people that you helped keep employed.  
   
  Keep your eye on the up and comers like 
  AmiBroker.  It already beats Metastock in the programming and system 
  testing areas, and if they get their act together and do the same for charting 
  it will be a real alternative to future upgrades.

    Lionel,
     
    Your point is well taken. I wonder what I got 
    for that last upgrade, and what, if anything, I will get with the next 
    one.

      Concerning this posting, in particular points 
      4 thru 7: so? What else is new at Equis support?

        Sean,
         
        Sorry to say, but my modem got zapped by a 
        lightning surge, I had to reinstall Windows, and I lost my e-mail files. 
        Thus I can't give you the direct quote of what Equis said. However, I'll 
        give you my interpretation plus my opinions. You may want to go directly 
        to Equis for clarification/confirmation.
         
        1. Equis said that the indicators that can 
        be downloaded from the May 2000 article were written at some later time, 
        and may not be a direct copy of what Ehlers wrote.
         
        2. The Cycle Length Indicator from the May 
        2000 does not agree with the one that can be downloaded for the March 
        2000 article, according to my <FONT 
        color=#000000>observations.
         
        3. The Sinewave Generator from the May 2000 
        download does not agree with the MESA Sinewave indicator that is 
        contained in the Metastock indicator list, again according to <FONT 
        color=#ff0000>my 
        observations.
         
        4. My <FONT 
        color=#000000>impression is that someone at Equis who didn't understand 
        the article did the programming. They did not talk to John Ehlers about 
        this.
         
        5. Equis said that their programmers are 
        working on other things now, are very busy, and won't be able to look 
        into this anytime soon.
         
        6. I have found two other errors in 
        Metastock's programming lately.
         
        7. My overall conclusion is that you 
        shouldn't trust any of 
        their indicators; program it yourself if possible.
         
        Hope that helps. Let me know if you learn 
        anything else.
         
        Tom

            Generator
            I recently downloaded from the Equis 
            web site the Sinewave Generator described in John Ehlers' May, 2000 
            TASC article. When I applied it to the Sept 01 Canadian Dollar 
            contract, as well as others, I got a strange looking plot that 
            missed several obvious cycles in the price data. I sent the plot to 
            John Ehlers and he responded that there was an obvious error in the 
            Sinewave Generator. 
             
            I have just notified Equis of this 
            error.
