Since AT is going away, several prop firms are now switching to different platform. Assent and Hold brothers, I believe chose ESignal and Generic goes with Thompson one.
THis is my third day using Esignal to trd NYSE listed stocks. Not very good experience so far:
A stock that I was trading and watch its times and sales suddenly not updating on the times and sales (advanced chart version) and on the chart. THe status was still showing OK green on the times and sales. This happens for the third consecutive day now. Each time I call customer service, they could not figure out the problem and the solution is to restart both the data manager and esignal. The support said that the stock somehow got stuck. Even few hours later the same stock would not update unless you restart. Because of this, now I would have to open both my AT and Esignal times and sales until the firm take AT away from me. WOuld appreciate any input from esignal support to solve this problem. Another problem if you want to scroll times and sales to the beginning of the day (press end key), usually it will take you to the beginning of yesterday even though I set the filter data to be 1 day.
Also another annoying thing is the symbol count keep adding if you type a symbol on a chart and replace it with another symbol. So after a while you would need to reset your symbol count to clear the database.
I would like to find out the experience of other prop trders who start using their esignal.
