This program should not use TRADER in its name. It has become a sometime real time quote service with non updated graphs. The global scan does not work if you are using their limited number of tickers. This program is very good but very poorly managed. Global Scan represents a feature which has been misrepresented since it no longer works as originally sold to the public. Internet Trader is a far better deal since all the features are allowed to work albeit it shows delayed quotes. If you trade you need updated charts on a consistent basis not every now and then. If you trade you need a global scan that shows you the stocks that fit the formula you aked for--not a list of stocks without numbers. Since we have not chosen the global scan stocks they should not be part of managements limited 150 version of Internet Trader. I seriously question if those running this show have ever daytraded and recognize what is necessary to carry out that activity. I have quietly used this program since its inception with the hope it would improve but it has only become more limited for use as an inexpensive trading tool. At this stage you must have a real time back up so you can switch back to Internet Trader for global scans and updated graphs and any additional stocks you might want to see. Management must know that every online broker is rapidly improving its real time quote capability and eventually most will supply dynamic streaming quotes. Why would Real Time Trader limit the use of its strong points in the face of ongoing internet improvements. Please allow this program to fully bloom and stop choking it off.
