Michael:
What way to go? Keep your eye on
AmiBroker. It is already better with respect to programming and permits
use of script. It's charting is inferior to Metastock, but the developer
is very aggressive and I would be surprised if that gap is not closed within a
year or so.

Subject: RE: A drastically revised and
improved MS?
I
think exactly the same way as you but I got a VERY strong feeling that the
things you are hoping is just a dream, Because don't forget that Equis
is now from Reuters and what does Reuters sell ? Correct data ! So it is
very logical they will and are already taking that pad. Last upgrade
what were the new features apart the useless systems which are password
protected, yes Data on demand.

So I
believe he can only dream of the MS what is used to be. And a very
bummer is that Supercharts seem to be of the market, is that correct ? Other
ways we don't have no where to go. What would be a good alternative
?

make a good point. However, if you have emailed them suggestions in the past
and still have them filed somewhere, it wouldn’t take much effort to send
them off again. That’s what I’m going to do. And then see where the pieces
fall.

me personally, the next major release (whenever that may be) is going to be
the make or break. If they really improve the program, I’ll stay forever and
continue upgrading, buying their addins and data…If they put all their
effort into making it a “Tradestation.com” offering (making it an online
subscription using only their proprietary data and brokerage house of their
choice, etc) to try to suck
more $$ out of us, I’m history. I’ll move to AmiBroker or something else.
I’ve always thought Metastock was the best charting package, but not the
best analysis package. Again, with a few improvements, done with the user
(and power user) in mind, they would be the best.

support informed me that that therewill be no details "untill something
is ready to ship". I interpret this asa suggestion not to hold my breath
:-) Herman.We are always working on improvements
and revisions to Metastock. As forspecific new versions, release dates,
or new features we don't have anydetails until something is ready to
ship. If you have any suggestionsyou wish to make about how Metastock
can be improved, send them to<A
