Don't bother with this book. There are several others that will give you much better insight into both TradeStation and 'building winning trading systems'.

The one interesting part of the book was the interview with system developers... but then I discovered you could read them all on the authors website. So what's the point?

Anyone who has used Easylanguage knows it is easy to learn. This book provides a reference into some lesser used features and presents some interesting ideas on optimization. It starts slow so even a beginner can use it to guide the learning process.

It's quite expensive and isn't worth full retail price, but a nice used copy is worth it. I use it regularly for Easylanguage reference. It's MUCH better than Tradestation's Easylanguage manual.

Trade Station newbies will not receive much from the book. Mr. Pruitt and Hill are Tradestation expert script writers which can be seen from their programs in the book. Unless you grew up with the Omega product and it's development, you will be quickly left behind not knowing what to do. The book did help confirm that I don't have enough time in the day or evening to train myself to a already difficult to master program.
