Ninja Trader and Interactive Brokers

It has just come to my attention from NT support that the charting portion and T&S portion of their software registers incorrect volume on the charts due to duplication of T&S values. They cannot do anything to fix it.

I like using IB but I need a good charting software and execution program and don't really want to pay extra for data as IB supplies all that I need. Can anyone recommend a good software package that can replace NT's complete package and that is compatable with IB?

thx,

Fred

I use Sierra Chart for charting (does everything up to full market profile with advanced package. Costs a bit over $12 per month.

For order entry, when I left Ninja Trader I went to Zero Line Trader which is a lot cheaper at $89 per year ... there is a trial and also a 3 month subscription ZeroLine Trader

Hey Freddie,

I know that Sierracharts or Investor R/T work well with IB data.

A good, free time and sales window can be created with Ibcharts.com software if you use one.

These are the only two I have used with IB's data.
