Dear Mr. Schindler,
Thank you for your interest in our products. Let me try and clear up the confusion:
Strategy Runner has a few products. The main ones are:
1. Strategy Runner - a trading platform for automated, hands-free trading system execution and for manual order execution. Strategy Runner is available free of charge, and the usage fee is commission-based. You can create a portfolio based on our strategies (systems), or run you own system(s) after they have been developed.
You cannot import a trading system (i.e. Tradestation EasyLanguage), but we can implement it in Strategy Runner for you, or you can do it on your own in C++ programming
2. Strategy Tuner - a backtesting and optimization tool, where your strategy (trading system) can be backtested.
Startgey Runner is not tied to a particular broker/clearing house - at the moment we are working with a few and are in negotiations with more.
I hope this helps clear things up.
In order to understand Strategy Runner, we suggest that you try out our Paper Trading system, which is a demo system based on live feed. The system is available for a free trial period of 14 days until the end of the year (in Jan.1, 2003, we will start charging for it!)
