TradestationSerious Performance Issues: Alternates?
- Thread starter dougcs
- Start date
Quote from Nana Trader:
Writing strategies and other programing in C++ is very
hard for Average trader Unlike TS proprietary language.
Is there a reliable order entry platform to feed data
to Tradestation 8, as well execute orders for signal
generated by TS8?
Can Xtrader or any other software can do this, so
automated scalping becomes possible with TS8?
As for a program to execute trades generated by TS 8.X Im happy w/ Tradebolt routing the orders thru to IB. As for updates to the software word is that there is going to be a service pak or a real overhaul of the software near or around their conference in Vegas.

Right, but tradebolt don't feed data to TS, and because TS
data lages somtime, cause orders to be sent late to market
and scalping won't be possible, you need somthing that can
feed data into TS and as well excute it, so the current quotes
on TS and order entry matching, i hope you undersand what
i mean to say in my last sentence.

It's good to hear that, i hope TS solve their data issues, by
integrating with other feeds

This wouldn't suprise me at all ..... I should have said that I only use it for futures and not that many futures at that.....
Quote from MacroEvent:
I have found the Xtrader platform as the most reliable and proficient as a price data feed to my program through the API and then my program sends order excecution intsructions through the API back to XTrader. I had to pay for the C++ programming, this is not my specialty or interest.
Is your system based on regular old C++ or Visual C++?
Quote from Raystonn:
C++ is a language. Visual C++ is a compiler. You write C++ code and can compile it with Visual C++.
V.C++ was input and C++ was output, right? I took C++ course
for 2 weeks, give up, it's fcuking hard to learn those thousands
of syntax it offers. It's not something like EL to jump at it from
begining
