I use Fidelity Active Trader Pro Platform and I feel Like I am living in the Stone Age!

  1. %% Back when I used them, not the stone edge,LOL;
    I liked the way they mailed out green monthly statements/ USPO. And I never call that snail mail,LOL……….…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… I tend to read their ads on IBD/newspaper

  3. Yep happens to me all the time. I have found that it will always happen to me when I am first entering a trade. It seems like the very first trade I just have to plan on ATP freezing up and then I just have to reboot my computer to get back in.
    Very weird and very frustrating.

  5. I lost a great opportunity.
    I called them up.
    They have no clue how to fix it.
    I got it for about 7 last days.
    Should I change the platform?
    I am very active trader and they are giving all trades free?
    What is better option?

  7. Folks,
    I was happy with fidelity active trader pro
    Not anymore it stalled at beginning and at the end of day. Low capacity i would speculate.
    People staying home and they did not get any additional resources of course.
    I lost a lot of opportunities.
    I am very unhappy ready to switch
    What is best choice from day trader point of view?
    Fidelity does not care....

    They haven’t upgraded ATP since I first started using it, 20+ years ago. These days I use IB for day trading.

    I wanted a better, and an easier platform for entering trades, easily changing from 5-min to 60-minutes chart, or daily/weekly, with my Fidelity accounts.

    So enter Medved Trader... (www.medvedtrader.com), chart trading, DOM etc., but bring you own feed. (Presently I use a paid for feed, Medved Trader also have a free feed, could at least be used for testing).

    Awesome combo!
