Looking for a trade management platform similar to Excel

Quote from savagemp5:

How can u study all these data when all these data could be fake ?

Can u tell from a chart whose buying and whose covering ?

Whose buying in slices, buying as hidden orders, buying dark ice, ice bergs, vwaps etc.

I wish u good luck !

ice bergs.. vwaps... thats german to me... obviously that means that people are posting options trades to game people watching.. which i would have to consider.. but you seriously think it would be a total fruitless task with no insight what so ever gained?
 
Well, let me chime in and say the title of this thread is off the mark.
Why ? Simply because Excel is NOT a trade management platform.
Not even close. It's just a crude tool. It knows nothing about trading.
Could a trade management platform be built with Excel VBA ?
Of course, but it would not be a trivial project.

Why not consider a real trading platform that can be programmed ?
Ninja Trader and Multicharts both support the IB data feed.

because there is nothing in Ninja trader for options.. no on trades options in the realm.. last i checked..
 
Have you considered going retro ?

Hire a secretary. You could be a bit pushed to find one at $50 per month. But you could call it work experience - and dangle unlimited wealth before her. Even marry her and get it all for free.

Not sure what you are looking for ?

Just get a load of this baby
