eSignal 7.3 beta with popout windows - anyone tried it yet?

Discussion in 'Trading Software' started by bungrider, Mar 12, 2003.

  1. Chuck T,

    Korea's Kospi 200 futures & options? It's rumored long ago Comstock would carry it by last July.

    Any chance for Osaka's Nikkei 225?

    And Taiwan's futures and options markets?

    Hi
    Just downloaded eSignal 7.3 Beta Release 2.exe to try this week. I know the officially released final version 7.3 is being released soon (does anyone know when?) but I just wanted to try some of the new features especially the floating window which will be most useful. Seems like I had read that once you upgrade to 7.3 you can't go back. Is this true? I'll probably try it anyway as I've tested all the other beta releases and they've worked fine. BTW thanks for releasing such solid beta versions. :)

    BCE,

    Thank you for trying our beta.

    We hope to release 7.3 in the later part of this month. Floating windows are great, especially for multi-monitor users. Some of the features to be released is NYSE's Open Book and regional option quotes. You can also edit bar data directly from a chart window (Chart Options - Tools -> Bar Editor).

    If you have any feedback on the beta, please post it to our Beta forum.

    Regarding your question about going back to a previous version, there is no limitation to go back to a previous version. We just suggestion doing an uninstall using directions found here.

    Hi, J
    Been using it the last couple of days and it's great. Didn't know about the edit bar data feature which will be great too. Thanks very much to all the developers for all the hard work. Greatly appreciated. Thanks for your response. :)
    PS A couple of other features that would be very useful is to have a symbol for the Put/Call ratio and also to be able to use a filter to bring up just ECN bids and asks in the Market Depth window in the premarket and after hours. Thanks.

    I've never used the product before trying out the latest beta. Two things you have to add is spread charts available in bar or candle format, and be able to calculate spreads with whole numbers in the formula. Right now you can't chart any merger spreads that include a cash component.

    lescor,

    The latter can actually be done with EFS (eSignal Formula Script). EFS is an extended version of JavaScript 1.5. In addition to the core functionality of JavaScript 1.5, we’ve added custom extensions, or custom functions, that give the user specific control over the eSignal Advanced Charts. These extensions allow users to access the chart data and develop custom indicators and back testing strategies.

    More information on EFS can be found at these URL's:Advanced Charting Resource Center
    eSignal Bulletin Boards

    EFS Help Center and Library (coming this weekend!)
