12mo.s x 26= $312. Accurate for paid monthly, as it was paid. But $20/mo for 6 months.. not too bad.

"..no interest in being there" on AMP's list? I'd appreciate years of them bringing many clients and subsidizing them so they gain time to learn to use your system (takes a year+)?
But we didn't see all the "behind the scenes" problems of mixed-up communications/responsibilities.

Much backward compatibility is gone. Broker/Execution choices are down.
Let's move on.

A survey of users (over 6 months with SC) re new features would avoid inexperienced vocal users leading direction, and guessing; I urge Surveys-- hear all users, weighting experienced users-traders more on features.. to save time/money.

You make fair arguments re the base cost and not increasing price (to you). Still, adding $10 per month and letting AMP subsidize the rest would make us happier. Oh well.
Will check-update the email for SC account associated with broker, in a day or two-- should be unchanged.
That gives time to solve my V2012 (V2007 recalc changes) upgrade problem below:

Re: My recalc tagging/ upgrade Problem:
I asked about recalculation changes (V2006-V2008?) before this 2020-12-20 post: 32-bit Builds of Sierra Chart to be Discontinued with Newer Versions | Post: 244731
Chartbook Charts unnecessarily tagged for full recalculation issue? | Post: 257191
and Chartbook Charts unnecessarily tagged for full recalculation issue? | Post: 257391 sum up my problem.

I run 64 bit Windows; I'n not opposed to 64bit.
I'm stuck on V1991 because I could not get V2011/12 to run.

All #CircRef were eliminated months before 12-2020.

Saying other users had no problem does not prove there's not a problem on a large, closely-timed "funnel" system, nor solve mine.
Else, why did this all run great on V1991 but not V2012?
V1991 has no continuous "full recalc" - it runs every day.

Overlays flow down 10 charts or so, among about 30 charts, many sheets on each of 12 Spreadsheets.., in fast scalping, 1 sec setting, 200 to 490 msec staggered Chart calc. settings...

Rarely sending a result back to a prior chart for another section does not necessarily require recalc.
Only the "Overlay Study" causes this, which does not work as well as one we built, which treats related study subcharts as an array.

Those calculation settings were "tuned" and staggered to distribute load (no Circular ref errors).

No users do this in 14 time frames (bar length, most under 5 min. bars, similar time lengths per Spreadsheet)
Helping get complex hi-speed configurations (like this) to run fast/ not fail on upgrades should be a SC priority, as a test benefiting everyone. I urge you identify about 10 of the most-complex, fast trade users as prime feedback, worth a bit more time listening.

Why in 5 charts re-trigger 10 feeder-charts to recalculate when all are in the process of calculating already? They all have fresh data on average within about 250 msec. That eliminates all recalculation needs.

Please add a "no recalculation" or "use pre-V2006 recalc method"... option...
solves my problem (can live with new time/dates/depth revisions, hopefully).
