Which one is better for automated trading and back-testing? I am going to use Interactive Broker with it, thanks!

Of the three, Tradelink is an order of magnitude more flexible and better. Contingent on you having some minimal programming skills.

For those with limited programming capability, Amibroker is better than TradeStation.

Thanks for sharing.
I am a programmer so it should be fine for me. I read some threads about Tradelink and seem like it is not that completed, is it much better now? Is it a google support project or a private project? Earning by support subscription?

Could you please explain more why?

Because your strategies are based on C# and can incorporate .NET or other libraries. Where as the other two can not.
