There is a lite version in terms of license fees: only one ButtonGrid open (there may be more, but not visible) and no Group Strategies - details are to be found at the website. The other features are still available. You did not say what features of ButtonTrader attract you? The people who use ButtonTrader seem to like different features, so it would be really difficult to make a lite version in terms of less features that everyone will find useful. I think the way to check it is to to play with the demo (read the accompanying document) and then decide if you want to go on. Trying to look at - let alone read - all the documents first will be confusing indeed. If you miss something, look up the Reference Guide whether it is there and/or read some of the special documents. Regards Bernd Kuerbs
