What is it you want to chart? Interactive Brokers TWS runs on a Mac, but it's got some issues. Among them, you need $10,000 to open an IB account. I've used Macs since the 1980s, love 'em, don't like Windows, but I'm ready to buy a Windows box so I can run Ninja Trader, Sierra Chart, and whatnot. (My current Mac is pre-Intel, won't do Windows right). ProTA is fine for end-of-day (that's all it did when I used it a couple years ago, maybe it's intraday now?). Can probably source the data somewhere; I just used it for stocks with data from Yahoo.
I'm looking for real-time futures datafeed, if possible it must be integrated feed (I used CQG for Windows before, I like momentary ready data)
Ya, for real time intraday futures charting in Mac OS, the options are limited. Best of luck in your search.
Quick Screen Trading (QST) has a Mac-native version. http://www.tradewithvelocity.com/trading-platforms/qst.aspx I tried the demo and it seemed fine. Note: You don't need an account with Velocity to get this - it's the broker that I demoed it with.
Market-Q by Interactive Data works on a Mac so as long as the operating systems for the mini are the same as a Mac and it uses the same Java it should work
Statmetric is a software worth taking a look at, it is very promising, although at this stage it is just useful for your EOD analysis, an you must have your data in .csv format. but runs nicely in mac and unix platforms. Hope this progress and some day we can connect it to real time efficient feeds.
Rani, Im assuming that DTN Sat is just a historic name. It still comes in via the web right? Is it the same company as IQfeed or a different company that repackages it?
