Tim: As the archives indicate you are far from alone although the system people are the most vocal. In general, I think you will find that programs often do not satisfy to the extent that they should but do quite well in specific areas. One can spend a great deal of time with the programmable ones such as AB in an attempt to get closer to the desired "universal" endpoint. However, you might find that you can make better use of your time by using AB in a straight forward manner as a feed for other charting programs (commercial, free, and brokers). I operate in this manner mixing AB with several other programs and find that I can get the best from each and can switch from one to the other without missing a beat. This might not work for everyone but for me its OK. Think about what might work for you with your trading requirements, style, etc. and you might find that there is life beyond the boundaries of AB which in turn will reduce your frustration level.

I suffer from Clinical Depression which affects my ability to focus on such things. It is especially frustrating for me because I have been a pilot/flying instructor, air-traffic controller as well as a stockbroker before having to retire early due to this affliction. Even so, I still believe there are many people out there who would benefit from such studies being included as well as TJ himself from a business point of view. When I see new features being added to AB for the benefit of others I am pleased even though I won't get any benefit from them. It never occurs to me to suggest they work around what ever difficulties they might have had before the new features were instituted. I was hoping that others could see the benefit of such things as auto trendlines/channels, pattern recognition plus other studies which have been suggested even though they might not gain any direct benefit from them. We all want AB to be even better than it is now and including different studies would, I believe, help. If nobody can see this other than me then perhaps I am wrong and will not bring this issue up again.
