Have some trade ideas and looking for extensible trading platform?

Thanks guys. I feel one important feature the trading platform should have is:

it can point-and-click and zoom in to any part of past historical data.

For example, in the IB TWS I am currently using, I can see the price graph yesterday, but I cannot play analytics on yesterday's data. Then it's hard to review and learn from previous trade opportunities.

Exactly - Tradestation does not yet offer portfolio testing, but the following programs do:

- Tradingblox
- Tradersstudio
- Amibroker
- Multicharts

There are others - but those are the ones I know best.

Is there a review comparing all these software?

I read from TradeStation it has 26 years of intraday historical data.

What a regret that IB doesn't have intraday historical data.

Do the software you mentioned above have these historical data?

I think it's not a big problem if it can only run one instrument backtest at a time. We just have to run the tests for each instrument. Right?

They can be used to back test option strategies?
