Ensign: Invitation to try Ensign Windows


Welcome to Ensign Windows, the newest technical analysis software developed by Ensign Software, Inc.  Ensign Windows can be used with several live data-feed sources that provide real-time charts, quotes, news, portfolio management, and technical analysis.  Or, Ensign Windows can used without a data-feed, and can update charts from Internet sources.

We would be pleased to have you download a copy of Ensign Windows and give it a thorough discovery.    Click this link for  Download Instructions.   Installing the program gives you a 1 week trial use period.  After that we hope you will subscribe.  The program use fee is $1.35 per day for the balance of this month, and then $39.95 per month thereafter until you notify Ensign billing you want to cancel.   Use the built in Order form to initiate your subscription.  If the status after installing shows  'Expired',  send an e-mail to the Billing e-mail address found on the Contact Us web page, and request an opportunity to try Ensign Windows.
