I have had BullCharts for 3 years. I assume you know that BullCharts is a easier version of MetaStock. Code is slightly different. If you go back through the posts you will find the code for TechTrader. Which is a scan.
The data I use is hourly updates and EOD. intraday is expensive, and I am not a day trader.
I believe that is one of its weak links. It also has no back tester, so the preferred option is Can Slim. How ever it has heaps of advantages in reporting and fundamentals.
The following link is to Robert Brain, who has a site with all the help you could need with the software. There are three variations of his site, free, toolbox member and premium member.
