 FYI -- MG Financial Group offers practice trading accounts online, called Demo-Accounts, allowing clients to prepare for trading. MG Financial Group developed the practice trading accounts to help potential clients become familiar with its trading platform and test trading strategies. The accounts include access to real-time rate quotations, foreign exchange charts, and a newswire dedicated to covering the four major currency pairs.
At the request of a college instructor, MG Financial Group later developed a program to educate university-level management and economic students in trading. Through the program, students can form a more comprehensive picture of the factors involved in forex trading. Educators interested in this program can contact MG Financial Group. MG Financial Group, a privately held company based in New York, has been offering Internet forex market-making services since April 1997. The focus of MG's business is individual traders. |

| NEW -- Trendsetter Software has introduced MacChart 3.0, the first release in a top-down, total rewrite of its entire product line, replacing Analyst Lite. An end-of-day product, MacChart downloads stock, options, index, and futures prices from Dial Data using TrendsetterÕs Internet utility, Net Access. MacChart requires System 7.0 or later (Net Access requires 7.5 or later), and will work with virtually any Mac. Product improvements over Analyst Lite include unlimited charting, with assigned memory the only limiting factor; unlimited layouts; one-click chart controls; one-click sort and rank; computer-generated and user-drawn trendlines; improved block delete; and improved speed, memory management, and compatibility.
The Net Access utility downloads daily data (open, high, low, close, volume, open interest) for all stock, options, futures, and indices from data provider Dial Data. The Net Access client chooses a list or lists of securities to update. Net Access determines how many days to download for each security, so if the client misses a day, week, or month, the utility fills in the data gaps. Net Access works via AOL and CompuServe as well as direct Internet connections. It also supports ISDN, DSL, and cable modems. Programs are backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee. MacChart, which comes with Net Access, has the introductory price of $129; full list price will be $159. Upgrade price for Analyst Lite users is $49; Net Access, $30. A demo version of MacChart can be downloaded from the Trendsetter Website. 2024 N.

FYI -- Users of the new TradeStation 2000i from Omega Research who want to incorporate neural network predictions in their trading systems can export network predictions from the NeuroShell Trader, NeuroShell Predictor, or NeuroShell Classifier.
The NeuroShell Trader can either import data or indicators from TradeStation 2000i or export neural net predictions or trading strategies using prebuilt EasyLanguage functions. The export capability means that TradeStation users can take advantage of the genetic algorithm optimization capabilities of the NeuroShell Trader. The NeuroShell Trader can also directly read files from Omega ResearchÕs HistoryBank.com Financial Database. The NeuroShell Predictor is general-purpose neural network software capable of forecasting numeric amounts, such as percent change in price. The NeuroShell Classifier is general-purpose classification software useful for examining data and grouping similar patterns into categories such as buy, sell, and hold. The NeuroShell Run-Time Server that works with both of these programs allows TradeStation 2000i users to call trained neural networks using EasyLanguage function calls. These import/export capabilities are now possible because NeuroShell and TradeStation 2000i are both 32-bit programs.
