AMP free platforms?

Hi,
I am interested in opening a small acct ($2000) with AMP to trade micro futures.
Anybody using one of their free platforms?
Can you tell me what you like about it?

 

I have used SC before AMP and still use it because of chart trading

 

I used SC with AMP and really liked it.

 

Ditto, I use SC Package 3 free via AMP. Have done for years. It is fed with he CQG datafeed.
All round it is an excellent solution.

 

Thanks for replies!

"I used SC with AMP and really liked it."

What made you stop?

 

I have quit trading futures

 

I use multicharts with AMP and CQG feed. The user manual is 934 page long PDF. There are many, many videos on Youtube. Yet, still, I don't find it particularly user intuitive. It may well be on account of my age and the type of charting, trade page, etc that I used many years ago.
I will tell you this, though, the program keeps up with the feed, which is all I need. I always run at least 2 feeds from different sources on different computers, because I don't trust anybody, and amp/cqg/Multicharts is always fastest.

 

Thanks for the tip old coot.

“I always run at least 2 feeds from different sources on different computers, because I don't trust anybody,”

Could this mean that it’s possible to have 2 computers running MES at 1 minute time frame . . and show 2 different price activities?

 

Yes, if one is running slow. Your data may be a few seconds to a few minutes delayed. The worst I've ever seem is OEC. Here's a screenshot from one afternoon when there was a lot of action, and OEC is lagging CQG badly... That's a 14 minute lag!!!!

 

YIKES!
Almost scares me out of trading! . . thanks again coot.
So far I have SC and multi as candidates.
Anybody else want to chime in?
