Suggested Charting Software

Quote from One:

Thanks for your response.

Is this limit absolute, or related to back filling? In other words, are you able to construct a chart with intraday data already in a data file on your computer that goes back more than 10 days, or it simply impossible to construct a chart for more than 10 days? I've never run accross a charting program that cannot generate a chart back further than 10 days, so I'm questioning my understanding. Thanks again.

You can use historical charts. I would check out the demo.

They don't have the same functionality as intra-day charts ... that's comparing apples to oranges ...
 
Quote from amitman:

for backtesting and historical charting - Amibroker
for intra-day trading - Quotetracker
for scalping - NinjaTrader
That's not a bad call actually.

But my psychology is intraday (especially with these extended moves).
 
I have Metastock EOD and the graphics are very good but use http://amibroker.com for intraday charts. It is much more intuitive than Metastock and and you can use most any data source. I use IQfeed. Try Amibroker, it is VERY good imo.
 
NEWSFLASH

This just in. Quotetracker now has:
  • 20 days on intraday charts for TD AMERITRADE Clients, including backfill
  • multiple symbols on the same chart with dynamic or static anchor points (both intraday and historical charts)
  • ability to edit individual indicator parameters by just double clicking on the indicator legend on the chart
  • right click on the indicator legend on the chart for options like delete indicator, edit parameters, or in the case of extra symbol indicator, to backfill that extra symbol

LOL, this amount of power makes me feel like I was charting by hand when I first started out! :p

Goodness, it gets better and better. I asked Jerry if they can implement multiple symbols per chart feature just a month or two ago. I'm sure others have asked too. Their lightning fast response time is just awesome. Too bad MSFT doesnt have these guys under their payroll. Vista would be fixed by now.
 
If talking about Quotracker their Paintbar feature is just awsome, I don't know how long it is availble but I've just recently discovered it and it totally changed the way I trade, haleping me much.
