    Deciding on a Backtesting and Trading Platform

    All this hot air and TradersStudio hacks in here - and where is TraderStudio in terms of sales ranking? Nowhere near TradeStation, and I am pretty sure way below Multicharts sales. Tradersstudio does not have real time, how the heck you test systems and then trade real time? In...

    Deciding on a Backtesting and Trading Platform

    I use both TS and Multicharts now. First, I got the TS demo and looked at it a few weeks while STILL trading with QCharts. I decided afer a few weeks that I preferred TS. A few months later, I repeated same process with Multicharts. I am fairly satisfied with both, but I am always looking...

    Deciding on a Backtesting and Trading Platform

    This is the weakest excuse, or reason, for not offering a free demo. Traders want to make sure the time and money spent on software is worth it - not just the cost, but the time involved in implementing a new system, or changing over to another system. You can't expect traders to buy your...

    Multicharts User Thread

    I have found Multicharts staff to be quite helpful and customer-friendly and thus I am surprised by the experiences of sogodo. However, it could be that sogodo has a genuine complaint, in which case Multicharts would be advised to resolve the issue. We look forward to continued service...

    Multicharts User Thread

    I, and am sure many others, complain about customer service, justifiably so in many cases. However, I want to thank the staff of Multicharts for their prompt response to my queries. I inquired about the lifetime license and received a reply in about 20 minutes. I needed to retrieve my...

    Deciding on a Backtesting and Trading Platform

    I agree - the whole point is to TRADE, real time. Developing and testing with one package and trading with another certainly does not appear to be the most efficient use of your time. Unless you you have tons of time on your hand. Multicharts is a good product, the newest version is great...

    Which service for E-minis and backtesting (for a programmer)

    I have both Multicharts and Tradestation. With all the complaints you hear about TS it is still an excellent platform with a robust script language in EL. MC is quite good, can also program in EL. Why I prefer TS - support and forums are about the best. And, you get data, broker...

    Tradestation Software Question

    2G is ok but I suggest you add another G or wo. It helps. The DELL is not bad but a faster machine is of course better. Spend a few bucks to get the best tools to trade. Most Important are backup & redundancy - you should have backups and a PC running and ready to go if your main PC goes...
