Re: Backtesting Software Recommendation

Hi everyone,

Im looking for backtesting software to be used to trade Forex.

Iv had a look at TradeStation and from their website it seems like a sweet deal, as you have a broker + backtesting platform + historical and realtime data all from the one source and its only 99/month or free if you trade 10 round lots a month. And they claim their spreads are only 1-2 pips on the top 7 or 8 pairs (I dont know how wide this becomes during quiet session or when there is news - can anyone share their experiences?)

How is TradeStation execution as a broker?

Has anybody tried automated trading with them?

Any thoughts or discussion is appreciated. Thank you.

Nizar.
