NEW YORK, Apr 5, 2000 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Track Data Corporation (Nasdaq NMS:
TRAC) todaY released a brand new version of its myTrack software, version 4.1.
myTrack is a fully integrated online trading and market data system.
"We had over 100,000 people working on this project," said Track Data CEO and
Chairman Barry Hertz, "at least that's how we think of it here. With all the
input we have from our members, through chat and e-mails, we accumulate a
massive amount of information on what online investors want. We can skip much of
the traditional product development phase because of that direct pipeline to
consumers. Our programmers simply put our members' wishes into code--that's how
we create a new release."
Thanks to the enhancements of myTrack, version 4.1, members now have:
-- Access to NewsWatch, Track's comprehensive and extremely
customizable news application, which has been integrated into
myTrack
-- A Consolidated Order Book, displaying the books of various
ECNs together on one page
-- A more customizable Nasdaq Level II Display
-- The ability to select a default market maker for order routing
-- The ability to retrieve current and historical trade
confirmations
-- An enhanced option display
There are 41 other feature enhancements in the new release. You can find a
complete list on the myTrack web site at mytrack.com
