    I currently use ThinkOrSwim for stocks and i want to open an account for trading ES and NQ Futures. Looks like AMP Futures offers 2 free platforms, the MetaTrader5 downloadable and the web based CQG Desktop. Which of the two do you recomend for simplicity?

    Quantower and Multicharts.net are also free with AMP.

    not sure which is simpler, but my choice is metatrader 5......

    knowing how to code mq5 will for sure be a benefit....h

    I like CQG bit better personally and I actually think that our free platform is much better and offers much more than the free versions of the platforms mentioned above.

    There are many great trading platforms available today, each with its own strengths. The choice depends on your trading strategies and needs. While MT5 might offer superior performance over web-based platforms, simpler strategies may work just as well on the web. NinjaTrader and TradeStation are also excellent options, for futures trading, providing a seamless user experience and intuitive interfaces on their desktop platforms.
