Quote from RobertMcLister:





Limit,

Decision support software (DSS) can consist of various unique trading applications. In EGM's case DSS relates primarily to equity filters, which screen data in real-time to locate trading opportunities based on pre-defined criteria.

Yes. The description of XTS does contain a "lot of words" and XTS can in fact locate numerous technical, fundamental, and even news-based data patterns that other software cannot. I'll be able to go into that more once EGM is an official ET sponsor and once XTS is commercially available (it is presently made available to a select number of traders in beta).

The hypothetical illustrations you reference are intended to demonstrate how technology (not necessarily just EGM's) can benefit certain traders over the course of time (one year). You are absolutely correct in that some days the benefit will be greater or less than others.

I appreciate your comments.

All the best,

Robert McLister

How does DSS differ from what TS7 does?

How does XTS differ from what eSignal does? (combining analysis with direct access)

"Decision support software" (DSS) is a general term that typically applies to any trading application that "supports" a traders idea generating process. TS7, Neovest, Instinet Analytics, and Bloomberg are a few examples of decision support platforms.

XTS is another example of DSS--in this case, a dedicated trade filtering platform. XTS's value is in idea generation using a broad range of data points, pattern recognition features, and specialized data fields and functions. ESignal has trading system features as well. The main difference is in types of trading opportunities each can uncover, and in the method (and efficiency) that those ideas are displayed and automated.
