Soultrader,

I don't know why you choose to let brokers troll the board. That's how people like Woodie lost his soul and his reputation - inviting the sharks in to feed on the weak swimmers.

Personally I think its spam so I choose to leave this board while people like naik are welcome.

IMO you shouldn't invite the predators in to prey on the weak. But its your board.

CU.

Re: Futures Trading and Software

Totally agree with you Kiwi.

But I would also like to add that non-brokers should also be not allowed to pimp their wares.

I see that some people have recommended MultiCharts.

I have tried a demo of MultiCharts and would never recommend it.

Did not want to get entangled in a pissing contest - so kept quiet previously.

TradeStation totally sucks for data reliability and execution speed.

For order execution you can't go wrong with IB's own BookTrader. You just need to configure it to exactly meet your needs. For charting Ensign is superb and is only $40 a month with IB data.

Re: Futures Trading and Software

Thank you for the concern guys. The forum belongs to the members on the board and would hate to see the reputation here go down because of these things. I am looking to resolve this asap.

Thanks James.

Notouch, Agreed that Ensign's a nice package especially if you like Andrews Pitchforks or the extensive fib extension products that are built in. If on a budget (or just looking and testing; or looking for a really good Market Profile package) then Sierra Chart is also well worth considering.

This member is the original thread starter. Re: Futures Trading and Software

Just an update. Ninja Trader and IB have problems. NT reports improper volume with IB data feed. NT support cannot solve the problem and has suggested esignal data as an option.

hi Bocatrader,

The commisions are negotiable with Infinity. They dont have any software/platform fees but they do offer good rates. You can contact Khurram at k.naik@infinitybrokerage. com directly. He is working with members on Traders Laboratory directly for those who are interested in the Infinity AT platform.

notouch - I'm surprised by your TS statement regarding data. I have not had a problem (knock on wood) in months. Many, many months. I had tried ESignal and they had major data issues then and came back to TS and haven't looked back.

What markets are you trading where the data is unreliable? I trade the main e-mini markets and the Euro FX and it's been great for months!!

I do not trade thru them, so can't speak on behalf of execution. Don't care to have all my eggs in one basket.
