See Upgrade Policy and Pricing<\/strong> section below for more details.<\/p>\nIMPORTANT: This version is available to general public, not only members<\/font><\/p>\nCHANGES FOR VERSION 5.60.2<\/strong> (as compared to 5.60.1)<\/p>\n\n- Setup: GICS.txt file had 50102010 category incorrectly entered (without new line). Fixed.\n
- Setup: Formats\\aqgi.format file added\n
- Scale in\/out column could have thousand separator added in incorrect place. Fixed.\n
- New Analysis: when there was no selected formula filey a number of empty items were added to the combo box. Fixed.\n
- New Analysis: Walk-forward summary report name and from date was not reset in second and subsequent runs in the same Analysis window. Fixed.\n
- New Analysis: if symbol did not have any quotes at all, \"wait for backfill\" did not wait. Fixed.\n
- New Analysis: Exploration - a little speed up by decreased number of string reallocations in CAnalysisExploreJob::Run\n
- Inactive Web research window did not sync with selected symbol when \"sync always\" was turned on. Fixed. MG #113\n
- Filter dialog background change did not look nice on Windows XP and earlier. Turned this off in pre-Vista OSes.\n
- eSignal: in \"EOD\" mode when started outside trading session a last bar could be duplicate of previous day bar. Fixed\n
- eSignal: 64-bit plugin now correctly downloads daily (EOD) history (so mixed mode works fine too).\n
- eSignal plugin: added support for extended intraday (to enable it use Configure: \"Use extended intraday history data request\")\n
- Due to Windows \"feature\" dotted lines with width of 1 were printed as solid lines on a printer. Workaround (forcing width to 0) for printer implemented.\n
- Default black chart theme is only set when no preferences file is found. If broker.prefs exists but it is stored in pre-5.52 version then white scheme is applied by default.\n
- Charts: when loading multiple chart layout the invisible\/obscured windows were not always scrolled to the end (most recent quote). Fixed.\n
- Auto-hidden Analysis windows sometimes did not repaint properly. Fixed.\n

- New Analysis: Walk-forward combined OoS equity is just concatenation of OoS steps and no scaling is applied anymore. This it little faster and prevents some boundary\/roundoff conditions.\n
- Inactive tab text color is now fixed RGB (#656565) instead of querying system COLOR_GRAYTEXT as it is too light on XP. If you want inactive tab text to be completely black, then create registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TJP\Broker\Settings\InactiveTabTextColor with DWORD value of 0 (zero)\n
- In 5.58 and above Study() only worked in indicators, and always referred to current chart ID. It did not work in Analysis. Fixed.\n

- Charts: In 5.59 chart could stop refreshing when it had odd number of Plot() calls combined with a couple of PlotForeign() calls and total number of items to display in tooltip\/data window exceeded 20. Fixed.\n
- Charts: Print Preview and printout had incorrect colors due to the fact that SetDCPenColor\/SetDCBrushColor APIs do not work with metafiles\/printers. Fixed.\n
- colorDefault is now user- definable in the preferences (Colors tab) and selectable from Parameters window and associated with chart theme\n

- New Analysis: the message \"No symbols matched apply to \/ filtering criteria\" shows up in the message bar instead of dialog, so one does not need to click OK\n
- On attempt to close Analysis window that is currently running scan\/exploration\/backtest an appropriate error message is displayed.\n

CHANGES FOR VERSION 5.57.1<\/strong> (as compared to 5.57.0)<\/p>\n\n- When real-time quotes were streaming interval combo refreshed too often making it hard to enter new interval. Fixed.\n
- Entering custom interval in the combo did not always work correctly for floating windows in 5.57.0. Fixed.\n<\/ol>\n
CHANGES FOR VERSION 5.57.0<\/strong> (as compared to 5.56.0)<\/p>\n\n- Charts\/UI: now there is a new chart interval combo box that allows to either select predefined interval OR simply type ANY interval you want without the need to define it in the preferences\n

\nh - hourly, m -minute (note lowercase m), s - second, T - tick, R - range, V - volume.
\nD, h, m, s, T, R, V intervals can be preceded by a number. So if you type 15m it means 15 minute chart, if you type 13T it means 13 tick chart, if you type 200R it means 200R (range) chart. If you type just a number (x) without the following letter it will treat it as x-minute chart.<\/p>\n
- Tools->Auto update quotes is now native command (not a 'custom tool' as it was)\n
- Default \"X grid spacing\" changed to 50 (from original 60) pixels\n
- 12 hour X grid spacing replaced by 6 hour\n<\/ol>\n
