  4. I think Tradestation is better platform in all department, except they don't have access to all the global markets that IB has and financial strength of IB.

    I have account with both IB and TS, i am spending more time on learning TS and through TS global account you can send trade signal for all world exchanges right from TS platform

  6. trademonster had one of the best P&L option graphing ever.. i used to use it just to model positions i wish it was still around.

    you could adjust vol on each strike.. prices, everything.. it was really good.. are any brokers still offering this or is it abandoned?

    Can you use the Tradestation desktop platform with EasyLanguage to manage equity and futures option orders?

  8. I am new to tradestation, but i'm sure you can automate equity trading with power of EL, but not sure about how options works and if can be back tested or automated, as i never traded options yet.
