Looking for a MAC/Apple Mechanical Trading Program

  1. I am not new to trading - just to the forum. I am looking for a Mechanical MAC/Apple Trading Application. I do not want to run a hard drive partition program either.

    I use a simple process for mid-long term trend trading so do not need much in the way of fancy technical analysis gadgets. I do want to be able to do comprehensive backtesting of futures, Forex, and equities.

    Any thoughts/ideas appreciated. If you are running a MAC based program that would help.

    I know how you feel. I own a macbook core2duo and would love to run trading software natively in os x 10.6.x. Your best bet would be to use VMware Fusion 3 or Parallels. The second option is to test Crossover for Mac and see what happens. I know Metatrader 4 can successfully run in crossover.

    it will be interesting to see other people's comments on this, but unfortunately, all of the popular and most used trading platforms develop for windows only :(.
