Why buy MetaStock? If another data vendor wants to compete develop a program and offer it to the list for free.
Anyone who wants to could then compare the two and decide.

Metastock is probably not a big enough money maker for them. Charging for the program and requiring that we are then charged for data is a bit expensive. Richard, perhaps you could buy Metastock?

It is locked down to only use Thomson Reuters data. If you use a data provider other than Thomson Reuters, such as PremiumData, or might want to consider a different data vendor in the future, then you should NOT upgrade to MetaStock version 12. If you do uprade, you will be locked into using the Thomson Reuters data feeds. Best regards, Richard Dale.
