GFT Dealbook 360

Recommended Posts

Hi Gang..

 

I am using Dealbook 360. form GFT at the moment and although its a great platform I am finding it quite restrictive at points and a distinct lack of custom Indicators.

I have a list of questions if any one can help or point me in the right Direction.

Because this is a request I will keep it short and post more details depending on Interest..

 

cheer for help.

Ian

Thanks to everyone who has replied to my thread. Great start I might get somewhere...

Firstly I have used Mt for a couple of years and although its a very user friendly chart package I wanted an all in house broker, GFT was recommended to me by and experienced trader.

I like the Dealbook platform and its helped me get back to basics and leave all my Indicators alone.

yet there are still a few little tools that would make my charts loads better.

 

* A time shift indicator that i used on the MT it allowed me to make my 60min or 240min to shift the data bars back two hours so they started at 10pm sunday and not midnight.

* an ATR indicator that is text only on the corner of the charts it showed how much of the days ATR left or exceed.

* a fib extension tool

* save custom tools like custom fib tool

 

that would get me started and also introduce me to fellow traders that use the platform to keep updated with any changes.

 

cheers again guys..

Ian.

As far as I know dealbook is pretty much propitiatory to GFT (they may license it to one or two others). Long story short you are unlikely to get much help from anyone but GFT or maybe on thier forums (if they have any).

 

Traders that use it will be a very very (very) small percentage compared to more main stream platforms.

 

Ask away anyway some one might be able to help. If you are trading spot FX a free account with any of the MT4 bookies will give you a seperate free charting platform with a better chance of finding the indicator you need.

 

EDIT: What does deal book have in the way of scripting or programmability?

Have you looked at Ninja Trader or Tradestation?

 

I have used many platforms, NJ, TradeStation, GFT, FXCM, E-Signal, MetaStock, Omni Trader, ElWave, Market Analyst Gann adition, NeoTicker, Wave-59 and several others.

 

They all have positives and negatives, however, as much as I hate to say this, none compare to tradestation for all aspects. I have a love hate relationship with Tradestation, but find myself always back there.

 

I am seriously considering Ninja trader again however.

The main problem I find with Dealbook is what happens when you try to trade directly from charts. Drag an order, and it keeps jumping back to its original position. Other than that the software works well - better than Ninja in some ways.

Another is it's actually a betting platform (spread bets, CFD's, and spot fX bets) unless I am mistaken (which is certainly possible). This rather limits it's application.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
