Tradestation Alternative for Automated Trading

Recommended Posts

Hi, I trade automated strategies on Tradestation that I've written. Is there any recommended platform we can port these strategies to for better execution?

As a retail trader - not really. TradeStation is as good as it gets. Other platforms are as good, and some may have specific features that are more desirable for how you trade. But nothing that is obviously better. MultiCharts which SIYUA mentioned is built by the same guys who built the original Omega/TradeStation, and it uses a variant of EasyLanguage, so strategy can be easily ported.

 

Are you experiencing some specific difficulty with TradeStation?

 

If you can give a little bit more generalised information about what you're doing (eg frequency of trading, markets traded) then I can probably be a bit more help.

 

Kind regards,

I'm trading large lots and getting slipped tremendously, plus their short list kills me at times. Trading 50K+ shares, split between two accounts with my entries being slipped hurts with these lot sizes. The stock I'm trading is very liquid over 40M shares a day. I've tried to break my orders into multiples but that has been a programming challenge.

    • “If the West finds itself falling behind in AI, it won’t be due to a lack of technological prowess or resources. It won’t be because we weren’t smart enough or didn’t move fast enough. It will be because of something many of our Eastern counterparts don’t share with us: fear of AI.   The root of the West's fear of AI can no doubt be traced back to decades of Hollywood movies and books that have consistently depicted AI as a threat to humanity. From the iconic "Terminator" franchise to the more recent "Ex Machina," we have been conditioned to view AI as an adversary, a force that will ultimately turn against us.   In contrast, Eastern cultures have a WAY different attitude towards AI. As UN AI Advisor Neil Sahota points out, "In Eastern culture, movies, and books, they've always seen AI and robots as helpers and assistants, as a tool to be used to further the benefit of humans."   This positive outlook on AI has allowed countries like Japan, South Korea, and China to forge ahead with AI development, including in areas like healthcare, where AI is being used to improve the quality of services.   The West's fear of AI is not only shaping public opinion but also influencing policy decisions and regulatory frameworks. The European Union, for example, recently introduced AI legislation prioritizing heavy-handed protection over supporting innovation.   While such measures might be well-intentioned, they risk stifling AI development and innovation, making it harder for Western companies and researchers to compete.   Among the nations leading common-sense AI regulation, one stands out for now: Singapore.” – Chris C Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
