I've seen and tested some of the platforms for "non-programmers", but I personally hate graphical workflows where seems super easy to code an algorithm by just drag & drop pieces, but after 5 minutes it gets totally messed up. I prefer non coding, non visual editor approach like the one in...

I still have a lot of disconnections during the day from the websocket, as suggested in the Slack channel I've implemented a reconnection, but it would be nice having the WS stable. Also, any news on Level2 data from Polygon.io?

I'm using Alpaca for more than 1y. I guess I was an early adopter. At the beginning was a disaster, so many issues from Alpaca and Polygon.io (they still use Polygon.io as source of data). For many times in the last year I tried alternatives, like: - TD Ameritrade: the web socket sucks, too many...

I'd say http://arcadetrader.com, but if you mean Level2 for market depth, then no, Level2 is not supported in Arcade Trader. In this case I don't know platform that support Level2. If anybody know them, please follow that I might be interested too.

If it's true that you know those applications - your words: "test the validity of your trading results through various stress tests, and see if your system has a real mathematical edge or if you are just kidding yourself." - why can't you just name one or two?

Please write the software you know able to do that.

There is no way you can backtest a Scalp-like strategy by using minutes. There are literally thousands price events in just a minute and, depending on the stock, a minute bar can be also >1% of delta, so deciding at what millisecond to enter and exit the trade is absolutely important. I...

What SW has that? I'm interested.

I've seen many new traders backtest the day trading with minute level data. It simply doesn't work. You need tick level data and a backend that fills orders at bid/ask prices. And it's still not 100% accurate because order filling would be simulated and can't never be the same like live...

If you're not a developer, then ArcadeTrader is the simplest way to backtest your data by using a sort of visual language for patterns (they name visual language but it's just a pipeline of Javascript conditions) and a simplified Javascript for strategies. Most of the indicators are already...

I'm successfully using ArcadeTrader.com to develop and backtest strategies. Collective2 has more users, but it's not FREE and doesn't support Javascript. I love Arcade Trader, but the "share" feature is not available yet (I wrote multiple times to the team, but it's not clear when it will be...

I could be interested in it. Could you provide more info about the type of algorithm and the broker you are using? You can write here to get more people interested or in pvt.
