    Hello,

    I am testing the QuickScreenTrading software( 300$ per month ) and it looks ok if you are looking for a cheap alternative:
    -CQG feed( 0.05$ per lot, avoid if trading volume...)with access to gazillion exchanges worlwide.
    -Nice charting program with custom spread charts, native spread charts,charts overlays and forward curves.
    -Easy to use and nice looking ladders.
    -Unfortunately no autospreader

    Anybody ever used it? I know some FCM risk department do.

    When you say access to a gazillion exchanges, you are paying extra for those right or are they included in that $300 per month?

    We have a number of professional traders who use QST..
    I have seen this platform on a number of FCM desks who use it to as a platform to assist traders who use their APIs. One of the guys who runs it used to be a professional Options trader, and they have built a great interface for the Options trading.

    You can trade QST using the following data feeds: CQG, Rithmic or OAK (ADM API) .

    I know the main guy and will ask if they could have a spreader in future developments.

    Lastly, they have a native app for iPhone and Android.

    No.They are used by FCMs worldwide, so I guess each FCM provides their own connectivity.

    Sorry. Yes on top of that, you now have to pay 85 $ for each real-time CME exchanges, 110$ for each ICE...The 5$ for CQG is just for their feed and delayed datas( I am on sim so I don't know if it is the same in live ).

    if you are a pro, it's $85 per exchange. If you are a retail users , it's $5 per exchange.
    ICE is $110. If you don't have a brokerage account, you will be charged professional fees.

    They do have different pricing software packages, and that may differ from one offering to another.
