Hay Henry,
These guys should read what they write!
"Whether you already use MetaStock 12"
And it was released WHEN, if they are asking WHETHER YOU ALREADY USE METASTOCK 12!

Bulli,
I agree with you not much changes to me from what I can see from the website.
I just order the upgrade early this afternoon, I will check it out to see for me to see for myself. I will posted it later on once I get to work with it.
I'm kinda regreting I upgraded, they have 30 days to return.
I;'m going to watch the online videos to see what has changed. |

Frank Koenig

For me it is the end of the line, they no longer support third party data provider. So, I am not upgrading.

nasdaqtrader wrote:Our clients spoke and we listened with this NEW feature that puts everything that is great about MetaStock in one convenient location Obviously they didn't listen to any of the Forum members as nothing on the wish-list has been addressed. Yes, the Power Console may put whatever is great about MS in one location, but that has never been the issue; the issue always has been and always will be "features" which don't work, and missing basic functionality. Sadly, I think this is going to be the death knell for MS for all but the professional clients, and maybe many of them too, as many of the cheaper software packages are more powerful and are much more flexible to meet the changing needs of traders than even this latest offering. wabbit [:D]

Wabbit,
Yes I agree with you totally, they haven't checked in within the forum to see what needs to be updated.
The power console was no issue before, that upgrade needs not to be a pat on there shoulders, they should be ashamed on this upgrade MS 12.
My old software with OmniTrader is better than this upgrade.

Bulli,
I see you will not upgrade, I'm sorry I order it earlier today, this will be going right back to them.
I think this will sink MS all together and will lose alot of users and maybe the company may shut down MS forever. |

I guess I need to find a new charting software to use and put MS on the book shelf.
Any good charting software out there, please let me know. |

Frank, from looking at the web site's new video, it seems that the explorer , experts, and system tester,are the same. the System requirements to run Metastock 12 state that it will run on pc's under 32 bit and 64 bit processing, but it doesn't state that it uses multi core processing. As for real time data , they are replacing QuoteCenter Data with Reuters Thompson Eikon.
I don't see where they will support third party data feeds,
Most traders use multiple software's, I wonder if they will be able to use their other software with the new Eikon data feed? I suppose that the Datalink Data will remain the same!
I see that the Reuters Thompson Eikon will have IPhone apps
What I don't see, is integration with online trade accounts.
I already have nasdaq level 2 quotes and news feeds with my online broker, what I'm looking for is some sort of integration with them.
What I don't want to be doing, is to pay for multiple data feeds to support various software's and to keep jumping through hoops trying to manage them.
I will go to Boston to see their seminar on Metastock 12 and make up my mind then.

Henry,
Yes as far as they told me, EOD datalink is staying the same, just like you mentioned realtime data is changing to Reuters Eikon. I heard the realtime has pre 7 post market data.
Yes I do not see integration with online accounts.

Frank, one of the most important features should be multi-core processing! Under the present way, I have 4 cores at 2,2 ghz but metastock is using only one of the cores ,instead of all 4 cores at once. I used to have a pc that had a processor at 3.4 ghz . The new pc is more powerful than the old one, metastock is tying one of my hands behind my back, by not allowing for multi core use, along with 64 bit processing.
You might be interested into looking at Neuroshell trader and a Bowfort data feed w IB intergration

Henry, looks like I will be staying with MS 11. I will look into Neuroshell Trader.
I guess MS does not look what the forum users wish list are.

This evening I just downloaded MetaStock 12, and when I tried to log into MetaStock 12 after I downloaded I put my user Id and password and get the following message:
My user Id and/or password is not found, I tried it several times and this is my user Id and password and nothing.
Please advise |

What is wrong with Reuters? I have EOD for several years. Updated with each new upgrade at $129 a pop. Now you tell me it isn't 64 bit, doesn't work with multiple processor cores and worst of all, I ca no longer use my FREE data. What kind of money-grabbing ploy is this? Are you trying to kill this software or what?

Alvan, I think that EOD will still be able to use Reuters Datalink Data. Real Time will be Reuters Thompson Eikon. If you have other software, then you are going to have to get another data feed.The old version used to use ESignal. Since Reuters Thompson owns Equis, they want their own data feed.
Now that the newest version is out, I hope that there would be some sort of integration with online trading platforms. My online broker has free level 2 quotes,Eikon level 2 is an add-on.
The power console looks like a newer version of the explorer, expert, and system tabs that are found on the chart bar
