With reference to the AmiBrokersâ review. In general, I agree with the reviews given. It is a good software, however, I still would like to make the following points as to why I chose TradersStudio over AmiBroker: TradersStudio does Advance Analysis without any addition programming; whereas in AmiBroker you require a custom back-tester to do the same. TradersStudio is a much easier to program and cost only slightly more. TradersStudio also offers features like Walk forward Optimisation, money management, multi-tab charts features, besides others. Besides that, TradersStudio technical support is responsive, and fast. An online chat program is available, wherein you can chat live. However if the few hundred dollars does make a difference in choosing between TradersStudio and AmiBroker, then maybe you really might not have enough money for trading.
Thanks. I am surprised there isn't a demo or evaluation version of EOD TradersStudio. Why? he asks, curiously. Thanks Jahajee
I think this thread is a shame since it's clearly a TraderStudio affiliate thread. Take a look and compare with NinjaTrader and MultiCharts to start with.... I am representing another platform which I am not going to mention here (look at my nick ) but what Mr. Gyles discusses here is definitely misleading for newbies and other readers... Take care...

If you are doing back testing you should for sure look at the one I use cause I think it is by far the most next generation as it does event based versus single instrument based back testing. www.trade-ideas.com/OddsMaker/
I did find it curious that all of the reviews were about 1 page, with a couple sentences of positives, and then the rest of the page listing everything that was wrong with the platform. And then came the TradersStudio review, which is 25+ pages of positives with almost no negatives whatsoever. Is it really that much better than everything else??
Sincere thanks for your active participation and you all have asked valid questions which I am glad and ready to answer. Please go through the following two review threads so that you are aware of the circumstances that led me to purchase TradersStudio: - Getting Started Developing and Trading System - Deciding on a Backtesting and Trading Platform Please if you are going to read my reviews from the beginning, you shall see the following with the links for your kind reference: I had mentioned that I am looking for an âEnd of Dayâ Trading Platform as I am having a job. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1611852#post1611852 Next, during the reviews I had clearly asked for reviews from each of the Trading platforms to give their inputs and feedback. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1635355#post1635355 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1647860#post1647860 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1663903#post1663903 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1707285#post1707285 The developers either did not respond and some responded only after I posted the reviews I even joined the forums and emailed the support, but did not get satisfactory answers, opened new threads to get more inputs. When that also did not help, I had no choice but to publish my review as per my limited experience from the Demo or my understanding. Moreover, many of my questions went unanswered. I agree that the reviews could have been more extensive if the developers or support team had responded. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=108006 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=108147 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1664709#post1664709 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1674644#post1674644 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1674647#post1674647 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1679756#post1679756 At the beginning of the thread, no developer offered to help except for Mr. Murray who himself offered to help me plus an online webnair of the working of the product. He did keep his word and was responsive to my queries. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1695300#post1695300 If I was biased to TradersStudio, why should I have taken the pains of taking the permission of publishing the Private Messages of all the Developers / Support Team and why not just Mr. Murray? http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1671560#post1671560 I even encouraged people to post their opinions over the other software, to which they did not. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1683700#post1683700 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1705282#post1705282 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1695300#post1695300 Also, if you read carefully my review, you shall see that I did echo my fears and queries about TradersStudio as far as price and demo was concerned. You shall see that Mr. Murray and the customers of his product were so actively involved. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1705348#post1705348 The prompt response plus the willingness to accept their drawbacks were among the main reasons that I chose TradersStudio. Moreover, since I was looking for an âEnd of Dayâ product. I felt TradersStudio would satisfy my needs. Besides that, TradersStudio Manuals were well documented, along with the free videos that helped a lot in the understanding of the product. Moreover, much before the extensive review of TradersStudio, you shall see that I had already purchased TradersStudio and under the helpful guidance of Mr. Murray had managed to get a much better understanding of the product. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1705348#post1705348 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1742244#post1742244 Moreover, I had mentioned very clearly in the very first post of the review of tradersStudio as to why it is going to be over than a single post. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=1709185#post1709185 Hope the above clarifies your doubts. Please do not hesitate to ask if you have any questions.
