Okay I'm going take start programming for strategy trading

C

ChrisMMM

I want to learn strategy trading. The one that I hear the most about is trade station. I realize that it is going to take a lot of time and effort in order to learn how to use it. So I want to make sure I am using the best one out there. I have read a review that for some reason you can't use tradestation to scalp. I'm kinda doubting this is true?

Any advice or direction I should take would be greatly appreciated
 
programming in tradestation is fine - but their intrday data is not the greatest - if you look at their time stamps of their historical data you will see that they are off up to 5% of the time - that being the case - garbage in, garbage out

I thought this book is still on sale on amazon. Apparently not. Anyway, it is full of EasyLanguage code for strategy trading in TradeStation.

I saw that book selling recently for $195 -- it seems to be headed for Crabel status, who owns a copy himself. Apparently, one of the authors got busted on his fund, but he definitely knows his shit, just couldn't trade I guess.
