Without knowing the details of the future of Finanical planner, I see it more as a formatter of scan results. It might replace the scan module someday for many. But maintaining the scan module current with improvements, will assure a full capability for the experienced TA person. The beginers would profit from a full list of scans built into the program.

A vote for Backtesting facilities Naturally I like anything that extends the power of SCAN, a richer language (so we can do indicators that are not tokenized), but the idea on Backtesting oriented enhancements is good. Being a hard core type, I hope the new point and shoot QPFS interface won't be the only way to make a new scan. My experience with the AAII Stock Investor screening program (which has point and shoot) says this is a killer if you know what you want to do and it is long. Hopefully you will have a way that the expert user can just type away.
