Is tradestation suited for "hardcode" daytrading ?

Yes, strategy and Trade Manager are in sync.....

I don't trade through TS, but I do daytrade using their charts. I would say they are ready for that. Cannot comment on their suitability as brokers, since I never had an account with them.

Wonder if TGregg checked to see that they did answer his question.

Now I know why he couldnt find the answer before -- no account

Oh yeah......I guess if you're JUST paying for charting from TS, they don't owe you the courtesy of a timely response. LOL.

Oh but they did respond promptly to his question on there forum.

Thats the point.

Anyways, I thought the issue was that TS would not answer via email questions that they were sent via email. So, are you saying they answer promptly in their forum, but not through email?

Its already been pointed out on other threads that you will get a much quicker response to many questions using the forum. That's why the forum was established.

Used it many times.
No problems.
Very prompt.

Oh well.

Pretty nice. ~2 hours after market hours. It was an easy question tho.

Im not saying the forum and TS itself isnt without it problems.

But let's face it what broker is trouble free.

:eek:

Yeah....Understood. Seems like their CS just isn't up to par though. See this thread: "On Hold For 30 Minutes With TS". Check the comment by ddog on page 3 (3-24-04 01:24PM). They even had a rep on that thread today apologizing for the poor service. I don't really have anything against TS in particular. Just making some observations.
