Index Futures Platform rec

[SomeTrader]

I used to trade the Index Futures a few years ago and used Strategy Runner. I'm looking for a platform with orders that appear on the charts the same way SR did. Can anyone suggest a platform/broker? Contacted 2 but they won't even reply.

I loved Strategy runner back in the days...met the founders/ developers.

I think this platform is a close one to SR and free:

We have a few more you can explore.

Yes, it was very similar to that. I would bracket the price with target/stop and move them according to volatility. Measuring volatility for my strategy is critical.

What platform is this?

Your firm was one of the ones I tried getting a demo through. I got to the username step and never got an email after that.

The NinjaTrader platform supports trading from a chart. You can try it out with real-time market data as well.

Downloaded a demo. Will get it fired up tomorrow. If it's close to what SR has I'll open an account.
