I currently use tradestation but am totally unhappy and frustrated with EL. I am fluent in c#/VB/C++/etc. I would probably make the switch to MC.Net if it does what I hope it will.

One thing I'm wondering about is how/when code is executed - is code executed tick-by-tick or can it be executed under other circumstances? Good comments.

I'm very glad you are offering this alternative approach to programming in MC. I will most likely use it as I'm sick and tired of using the PL/EL language. It's extremely difficult to write complex code in PL. Often it feels like PL has a mind of it's own, and it causes unnecessary complex issues for developers in so many ways. Sure, PL is good for the very basic and simple work, and we all know that's what it was designed for in the first place. When it comes to complex trading systems, it's a nightmare. I have been thinking lately of giving up on MC and moving to say Ninja Trader but now this alternative approach has convinced me to stay and try it out. Good work you guys. Don’t get me wrong.

There are many more users who use Macs in preference to Windows PCs. I would be one of them if MC was supported on OS X. It's a shame you couldn't go down a different path and open up a wealth of other opportunities. One way of doing this is to use a java development environment, such as Eclipse. It even opens up the opportunity to develop portable solutions to work on Android based smartphones and iPhone, which are becoming extremely popular for mobile traders. Another path is the DotGNU portable .NET project. There are others. Oh well, perhaps one step at a time.

I've been using MC for two years and very satisfy with its stability and easy to use. And I also noticed some fundamental limitation of PL inherited from EL. Looking forward for more flexibility in all aspects in the .NET version. (e.g. process of multiple symbols quote with different time interval settings when every new ticks arrived.)

As mentioned in one of the previous comments, there will be two branches now growing instead of one - MC and MC .NET. MultiCharts with PowerLanguage will carry on as usual, with the same tempo of updates and new features. But for all those that don't want PowerLanguage for one reason or another, there will be MC .NET, a programmer-oriented program with a .NET interface. The initial studies in .NET will be the same or about the same, and all keywords that you are used to in PL will be there as well. So, the versions will differ in the programming language used, but there will be more differences. In MC. .NET we will eventually introduce flexibility in order handling and open up interface optimization options that are only possible with .NET. These changes will be very beneficial to sophisticated programmers and people writing complex algorithms. Glad to hear you are excited.

Will Multicharts .Net just be another language/framework for creating studies or does it also differ in order management, order control, position management etc.? When there are improvements in Multicharts are they implemented in MC.Net at the same time? That means: do both versions only differ in programming studies?
