If we are frank here, we would admit that TS is not priced like a
mission-critical application, and it is very hard to expect it to behave
like one. Very few people on this list would pay enough to sustain a
company that delivered a mission-critical application. TS is priced low
enough to be attractive to people who (1) are learning to trade or (2) only
trade their own capital. A mission-critical application would only be
justified by highly proficient and well-capitalized (read CTA, CPO) traders,
which are a small pool and highly individual in their software needs. We
may complain about *false advertising* but the fact is, what we paid for TS
does not usually buy mission-critical software. Keep in mind, I am in the
same boat as everybody and do not like the situation a bit.
I freely admit that I would not There is no market that would sustain a
retail-priced mission-critical application
