I realize that this is a bizarre question. However, I'm wondering if
any participants within this news-group had worked on the development
TradeStation 4.0 or TradeStation 2000i.

My technical question is this...

How is it that TradeStation can read-in 10,000 records, apply a complex
trading method to the data points, and spit-out rather detailed reports
in roughly 1 to 2 seconds? It takes me 80 seconds to do the same thing
using a static forward-only record-set. Yes, I'm using VB6 and Access,
but come-on, 2 seconds vs 80 seconds?

Is TradeStation transversing a proprietary data blob? What am I doing
wrong? Is it simply very tight low level code vs. my shabby VB6?

Any direction that anyone would like to provide would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks!

Trip

The only direction I can provide is to point you to other newsgroups
where your post would be not be off-topic. See the FAQ for what is
on-topic and for some ideas on better places to post:
