How is the 5 pm data update activated?  It doesn't seem to work with the "unlimited plus" plan.

Thanks

It is set correctly.  5pm is done by using the Snapshot option.   Then in your scan you set to snapshot to scan on that data.  The chart will update with 5pm data automatically.

This release seems to be pretty stable.

I still cannot view US indices and currency charts, but that's an old problem.

File size is 4MB smaller than the previous release, always good to see.

I have recently tried viewing forex charts, metastock format, with no success - is this the experience you have had when referring to currency charts?

CR, my problem with forex charts occurs in Bulldata mode. When I open a currency chart, all I see is a blank chart.

I don't have an forex data source in metastock format so I don't know whether it works or not.
