"we will be rolling its unique features into the new platform" as in Esignal 11?

Correct. QCharts 7 will be built on the same software code-base as eSignal 11 with additional features that are unique to the QCharts platform.

Jay -- looks awesome, looking forward to it. Questions for you.

1. Curious...What's the development platform? Still C++, .NET, WPF, Silverlight, none of these

2. Any chances users will be able to add EFS as columns in Quote Windows? Something like RadarScreen?

Thanks. !

I'm trying out MultiCharts on top of the Esignal Data Feed to get item 2. So far it has performed well so I'm starting to run it as my full front end in place of Esignal. This is a glaring functional gap in Esignal.

Another bug in esignal which I have brought to the attention of tech support to no avail is the quote for the $aux index, instead of showing the automotive index, it shows the Australian dollar, unless the timeframe is changed to daily (the automotive index quote for $aux is not viewable in intra-day ). Hopefully you guys will finally repair this issue.

I love E signal too, but have found the data too be unreliable lately. I have to use my IB to double check all quotes. If E signal were free it would be awesome, as a paid service, I expect accurate quotes. I think E signal needs to focus on quality of data and quotes, and forget about the outside appearance for now.

Instead of superficial appearance improvements, how about something USEFUL, like an autotrading interface to IB?

Ditto - trying Multicharts for that reason as well... two things I like about Multicharts when compared to eSignal:

1. Scanner
2. Workspaces..

Pages in eSignal are still awkward... I like the ability to view my active pages (workspaces) on the bottom of the screen and quickly switch them... eSignal pages are better than the old layouts but still too difficult to use...
