J-Trader, X-Trader and TWS

D

daydreaming

Is any of you familiar with all these tree Futures Trading Platforms? I currently trade ES and use J-Trader. It's fast and reliable, but not very customizable. For example, I'd like to have hot keys to sell and buy contracts at market. Do you know if I could do that with X-Trader and TWS?
 
daydreaming,

I use J-trader and you can set hot keys with it, call your B/D tech support people. I go through RCG and they had me up and using hot keys in 10 minutes max.

I have both sell/buy at the market set up in J-Trader, it's possible I also can set my stop limits both B&S on hot keys as well,...so...it's possible I use them every day.

I use Cold Key for excution
Hot key is too hot
Cold key helps to cool down
Sometimes I use a hammer for faster excution...
:D
 
You need to ask your broker to get PIG (Price Injector Gun) for the J-trader platform. This will cost your broker more money, but it is a valuable feature that PAT systems offers the FCM's and Introducing brokers to offer their high end clients.

TWS COMBINED with any of several API frontends becomes a very powerful trading platform...... wipes out jtrader.... do not know about x.trader but it do not cost $650/month like xtrader.
