Hi bwinkel67 thanks for your inquiry.
8 colour high res is used with QPC2 which will default to four colours with Mode 4 on other older QL Platforms as when using QL Qemulator or QL2K running at QLBB speed. In these environments QBITS Trader takes a few minutes to go through the Stock Trends calculations at start up and with each WEEK END changes. BUY or SELL will be slow but workable.
A 10-fold speed increase such as Gold card etc would be more workable. Q68 or Qimsi running SMSQ/E should be fine.
The only problem I have encountered so far is older QL Fonts Chr$(181) Ctrl+Shift+U may not produce Euro symbol!
The easy fix might be to upgrade the QL ext. Fonts ie. Fbase2=ALCHP(588) : LBYETS dev$&’QLFontB_fnt’,FBase2
Then CHAR_USE#ch,0,FBase2 (QLFontB_fnt uploaded in previous posts to this topic)
Or I could add it as an extra line of code to QBITS_Trader_bas if there is enough interest.
