    Hi All,

    Looking for some suggestions that:

    Has a easy "build-dev" environment to setup (prefer not to deal with python VMs etc)
    Can be used to generate signals and counter signals based on price, volume and MAs.
    Real-time.
    Does not need to do ANY order management.

    Probably more of a scripting language would be suitable. I don't want to get back into the "Development" business and focus more on the "Trading" business.

    Basically, I just need a glorified ALERT.

    Thanks in advance.

    PS: Using IB TWS now, but does not need to be integrated. My fall back is the TWS Excel RTD interface.

    Thanks All, I went with MultiCharts. I will spend the next few weeks setting up a bare bones system, then test it for basic functionality. If all goes well, I will put in the error handling and scaling code and then test the bounds and stress level.
