V. 20:1 (67-70): Product Review: Behold! by Dennis D. Peterson
Product Description
Behold! by Dennis D. Peterson
Macintosh users, rejoice! There is trading software out there that you can download and use with end-of-day data, and the software is Behold! Using a Mac with a 40MHz processor and OS 7.6.2, I was able to install Behold! and download Commodity Systems, Inc. (CSI), end-of- day data (I also had to download freeware called SpiffyCharts to interface with CSI). The first day I used the product, the initial portfolio definition to retrieve CSI data didn’t work, but after shutting down and trying again the next day, I managed to retrieve the data for the six symbols, with no changes made. Developer Jim Payne also tried it and after telling me to try it again, it worked and so did other items. At this point I am willing to write off a bunch of odd little failures to my older version of the operating system. The program can also be hosted on a PC using a freeware Mac emulator, BasiliskII, which is included in the Behold! CD.
