Avery,


I am writing to inform you that your request for a TradeStation Open Platform Trademark and Logo license (for TRO Indicators) has been declined. While we appreciate your interest, a decision was made not to proceed.

==========================================

My work passed TradeStation testing. But TradeStation declined to sign off. So all the users who wanted the S&P 500 tick that TradeStation wasn't able to deliver didn't get to use mine. TradeStation punished their customers.

Interesting, huh?

...

I beat dimes to nuts all because the code you offer is free, because you make your money trading the markets, not selling junk that doesn't work to traders that don't know any better.
