ESignal has a tick by tick replay function so you can replay the day later on ... TS does not.

I have traded TS using 1 contract and market orders and found it quite difficult to consistently make money. Main reason - you really need to be able to scale out - so my advice would be to find 1 (just one) setup that works for you and trade it using a simulator for a while - then when you start trading for real use at least 2 contracts and scale out of the first at a point that your entry hits it 75% of the time before it hits your stop loss... then let the other contract run.
