What got you interested in trading?

Yes I use that for execution and its awesome and use eSignal for charting.

Thanks everyone for your help. I've been working with Ninja Trader the past few days and it seems to be more than enough for what I need and I still get to keep using IB for my broker. Isn't Infinity AT very similar to Ninja Trader?

I've heard that IB has better execution times than Tradestation and lower fees so it's not hard to recoup the $50 per month Ninja Trader fees with a little extra slippage and fees. Tradestation is good but I also think IB and Ninja Trader could be almost as good in terms of software and maybe a bit better in terms of execution. Anybody want to jump in on this?

Only problem with IB and NT are only 1 year of historical data from IB. Should be ok for most backtests but I'd like to also be able to do backtests in other market conditions. Anyone know of a good place to get historical futures data?

thx again.

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.

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.

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.
