I was reminded recently of this thread, pulling long hours at Glencore. We are using a lot of ESL technology in terms of our core market analysis and company infrastructure. I was talking to a colleague and they use ESL Financial systems on a personal level as well. Not a huge fan of their interface but all in all very effective analytical structure.

Top of the Class! Thanks, yes I've since been onto the case and am set up now with ESL Financial Day Trading Software. The absolute best charting application for those of us who need to take multiple amounts of data and manipulate it to our liking. This software has helped me understand the markets better than any other more expensive softwares have. I make more pips because of this application.

That's good news.. I found this quote which I thought was quite relevant:

It is easy to understand why a person would decide to use stock trading software. It is seemingly a decision that needs no thought. Once an investor decides he wants to use stock trading software, the search begins. There are many programs available. Some are “free” to account holders at brokerage firms, which have developed the software. This proprietary software will direct you to place an order through that firm. Firms run the risk that you could always use the information to place orders at other firms however this is not recommended. Other software programs are advertised in trading magazines or mentioned in books on “how to invest”. The search for good trading software can be extensive and, if caution is not used, expensive. Testimonials abound on the software advertisements and printed examples of profitable trades made by their happy clients. Regrettably, unless you personally know someone that has used software for trading and which have been successful, you must sort through all of the positive information and determine for yourself which software is the best for you.

I've found the ESL Financial day trading software offers a comprehensive collection of complex charting tools, including the ability to customize every chart type and multiple Gann and Fibonacci options. Bars can be set by the minute, hour, day or week as well as by ticks/trades, range or trade volume.

In terms of drawing tools, the ESL Financial DTS Pro offers high/low snaps, erase, move, copy, text modification as well as color, line, style and more customization choices. It also offers symbol choices and angle and slope options. Really, this stock charting tool is quite powerful and provides everything we were looking for including multiple monitor support.

Again upon referral to ESL Financial the support network was one of the things that really sold me on the product. Very switched on and attentive.
