    An All-new eSignal Launches...

    Yes, thanks, hadn't thought to do that. I usually leave the title bar on in 10.6 because it is useful in that it tells what the symbol is, which 11 doesn't. 'Nuff said there! Actually I have a second monitor, a 23". But I use it only to blow things up so my old eyes can see them. Also I have...

    Here's the page I am using to stress test it. Not all of my functionality, but enough running at one-second to be a decent test.

    Well I managed to crash it with some modestly complex code which works fine in 11. Upon reloading, I found that the shit-simple code that was open each one of the 23 one-day charts gave an error message. And wouldn't relaod without error. But if I removed them and added them back, they worked!

    And what happened to all the font choices that were in the 10.6 script editor? About half of the choices in 11 are furrin fonts, mostly Asian (ah, so! ESiggle very fine ploglam!) and ALL of them are unreadable. For example, in 10.6 I use bold arial. Not to be found in 11. Edit: I take that...

    It's a good think I'm such a hotshot with efs and always do things right the first time, because there's no syntax check in 11.

    Here's a REALLY bizarre one. The output value of a study doesn't show up on the price scale unless you scroll left in time to take the current bar off the chart. I guess I don't need to see both the current price and the current study value at the same time.

    OK, here's my alpha test configuration. Twenty-three one day charts, each with a simple 12 line study running. That page representrs how I would like to be able to quickly spot-check my position trades, investments, indices and rates. So far, so good, no crash. But I'm still hoping. I'll...

    Sorry, can't help you with the passed arrays thing, never tried it. Never been up anybody's ass before, either, except for an old girlfriend who sat on me one night when I was dead drunk, just so I wouldn't be able to brag any more. But now that I think about it, 11 does remind me of the East...

    I forgot to mention why their using Windows Explorer to open files is a major PIA: there is no "Most Recent " pane so you can quickly retrieve the one of the seven files you worked on last. Hey, my time is cheap, yes? They don't need to make it easy orr fast for me to use 11. That was an...

    Isn't this fun being an alpha tester? I accidentally dragged a chart off of the screen, and it crashed. Also, when both 10.6 and 11 are up, and I open IB's TWS, I get a connection request only for 10.6. So I kill 11 and reopen it. I get a connection request, but no data appears on the charts for...

    Thank you kindly for the excellent advice. I will keep posting in case anyone forgot what that functionality is.

    Also it is extremely annoying not to be able to maximize/restore or minimize with a single click as in 10.6. Another case where they don't realize how precious a trader's time resources are. What do they think we do all day? Post on ET?

    Someone else who has used ESignal as long as I have remembered that in earlier versions you used to be able to save an individual chart as a file so you could later replicate it. (They also used to have tabbed pages long ago, like ther "new" version.) Anyway, on the theory that 11 may eventually...

    You are quite welcome. But while you were laughing I was crying. My vaunted system told me not to short this morning. Your observation about Notepad wrapping reminded me that in 11 they call Windows Explorer when you want to retrieve or save a script. I like the open/save in 10.6 much better...

    What an awful thought! I hope that is not true. If so, I'll be voting with my feet.

    I think they said that somewhere on their bulletin board. But there is SOME good news in that. For example, I love the clock they added. I time my entries to the second to keep track of my slippage and to minimize it. To do that I have a simple one-second chart running squoze down so I see only...

    Thanks for sharing what is important to you in screen setup flexibility. It is indeed the "little" things in 10.6 that make it so useful to a REAL trader, that is, someone who needs to get the information shoved into his head without trying hard to watch for it. The whole point is to make your...
