Just to clarify : Say I open an account at Tradestation with 40kusd, will I be able to trade : - US stocks - FX - Futures On the same account or will I have to decide what I want to trade and will I need to stick to this (in opposite with IB) ? I like your FX software, looks like a...

Can you be more precise on what you will offer for TT X-TRADER? Will it work with X-TRADER and X-TRADER PRO or just with X-TRADER PRO ? Thanks to clarify

As for extended intraday data, what is planned ? (to extend from 60 days to ?) Will it be available in first beta ?

The forum you mentionned is not very active, I will appreciate if you crosspost the news here when you will know more. What do you plan to work on in this new release?

Chuck, Can you give us an overview of what will be the global changes in 7.5? I didn't see anything about a better backtester (+optimizer) in your 8.0 description...

I thought it was supposed to be available in August with its longer intraday histories. Can we get an update on this?

It seems to me with their 195$ initial fee, they just don't want to sponsor freeware creation. I thought freewares based on eSignal could help eSignal to sell more licenses but it seems their marketing department thinks the opposite...

Yes I knew that. I guess if eSignal makes us pay for their ActiveX API, it will just makes people focus on developping IB API charts applications instead of new eSignal tools that could bring them additional customers, so I think this would be a wrong strategy to make people pay.

Final price should be zero (for eSignal). Does IB makes you pay to have access to their ActiveX 'API' ???

You use this indicator with your existing strategies, protected or not, and it will replicate Tradestation position on IB using market orders (if TS say your LMT order is touched, then DO will send a market order so you don't pay EUREX cancellation fees, each time TS modifies a order) ...

Eddy, I don't see any advantage in using a text file vs a DLL. Simplicity? Did you try Dynaorder DoMarketExecutor? You just add this to your Tradestation workspace and this indicator sends the orders immediately to reflect any position change. I think developping a program that will follow...

Wally, I use Tradestation 2000i with eSignal as a feed and Dynaorder for execution. It is very easy with DoMarketExecutor which checks the position and number of contracts in TS and execute market orders accordingly (same way TradeBolt use but in a ELA script so you can customize it better I...

Because we are talking about 6 years of tick data on ES #F for example (my database)...That would be far too slow to retrieve this database from internet just for a backtesting(!!)

Dion, I tried to find the reg key by myself (to remove IE 2 files limit) but couldn't find it . If you find it, it would be nice. It could be quite useful as I am a heavy EFS downloader!

Dion, I was talking about eSignal EFS database : http://www.esignalcentral.com/training/esignal/EFS_Database/default.asp Many EFS in the section I mentionned previously gives us APACHE errors...

Chuck, You don't plan to enhance the backtesting module soon? Once upon a time (sic) Matt G wanted to do a backtester that could test multiple symbols or multiple formulas, we were also talking about an optimizer with MonteCarlo engine (to cut down the number of iterations) and so...

Did I read pricing?? This feature should be free for users to develop freeware using eSignal. It will bring you new customers thanks to the freeware mania...

Dion, EFS database is still not working properly: try to go in those sections : KELTNER : can you see Apache errors? OSCILLATORS : can you download all indicators? VOLUME : many problems here also... Did you remove the 2 - 3 slots limit on eSignalcentral too? Thanks, G.

Dion, It is PERFECT now! from 3kb/s to 50kb/s, that is 16x faster (!!!)

As for platforms I like the one from GFTForex but they are 3 pips wide on EuroUSD. Oanda is the cheapest at 2 pips, but their platform is not as good as GFT. As for what is worth 1 pip? Easy : 0.0001 * amout you play = value of the pip If you play 100kusd, 0.0001*100 000= 10usd For...
