Paper trading platform

Then just use any one of the multiple free charts you see on the web at EOD. You do not need data in a trading platform, since you do not trade.

"I’ve traded without observing the market during trading hours for years...

...My broker calls me immediately if the market gaps through a stop or something like that..."

You are a faker, and we do not believe in anything you say. Just keep doing what you have been doing for years with no data and your broker calling you.

I’m not a liar. I’m a small time agricultural hedger and occasional speculator (a farmer). Everything I’ve said is true.

I've TOLD you. Use Ninja. Are you daft, old farmer Joe? It is totally free, and is a real trading platform/datafeed!

As I understand it, Ninja is only free if I open a margin account with them. I’ve already got one more margin account than I need so I’m not doing that. I also tried a demo of it a while back and didn’t like it.

I’m just looking for suggestions that I haven’t heard of yet.

I like talking to my broker. He speaks to a lot of hedgers and speculators and is always able to bring something to my attention that I hadn't considered.

I've traded since the 90s to know that they used to do that back then, but (WOW!) they still share tips and call you back about your trade? Who's your broker?

I paper trade futures markets, no stocks. I trade for real in the agriculturals, oil/oil products, metals, and the s&p. I’m not looking for a free one, I’m looking for a good one.

"end-of-day platform that will track my trades and plot them on the chart."
Have you found any that are acceptable or at least close?

Small farm town broker. I pay $75 per round turn for the service. There are other brokers in similar areas that charge up to $150 per turn. These brokers aren’t the ideal for day traders though. Brokers like this are getting rare but there’s still a use for them.

I’m using Gecko software Track N Trade right now. It’s really close to what I want, but I like to scour the market every few years to see if something better has emerged.
