Linda-
Hotline is a good TA package for Mac. You can rank and sort you list of securities by quite a few different methods. The charts are well-presented, but the program is not quite as stable as ProTA Gold, and if you read some of the posts on this thread you'll find many more comparisons between the two programs. Most of the locals use ProTA Gold, which is well-designed and doesn't have the "baggage" that Hotline has wrt backward compatibility requirements. Hotline has over 10 years of history to confine its future, while ProTA built a good tool from scratch and has only a couple years of history. As a software developer, I can tell you that legacy code is some REAL HEAVY baggage.

And in case anyone is interested, I'm also trying out Behold!. It looks feature-rich, but it's for the really, REALLY serious trader, and it's mostly used for trading system development, so the charting is kinda weak.
