I have used esignal for several years now. One thing I do like is the ability to easily create spread charts and symbols on the fly. If you are using v10.something, and creating spread charts, this may be a partial cause for your difficulty, with system crashes and such. When the new version came out, a couple of other traders I know upgraded and were having similar problems, with the software frequently crashing when they switched between pair and single symbols on the same chart. I have a newer version on a laptop, and havent noticed similar problems, however, I never upgraded the computer I use for trading during the day, due to these problems. I was hoping they would have ironed these problems out by now.
FYI, on my trading computer, I just checked and I have v7.9.1. It has been working fine for me up to now (not sure if that will change any time soon). The only minor annoyance is when I first open the software, often my spread charts won't update; I often have to change the time frame and for some reason, it updates and then I can flip back to the desired time frame.
You may want to speak to an esignal tech about the possibility of reverting back to an older version and see if your issues persist. I would be curious as to whether this solves any of your problems.
