    You can open as many as your system resources can handle!
    I have no problem with 4 matrix open and 12 charts running.
    TS is a memory hog, so You should have a GIG to run a bunch.

    If you are scalping for a few ticks all day long TS is not for you.
    Of course you can enter Stop orders!
    They offer a FREE 30 day trial plus exchange fees.

    Do you think Matrix is good or fast enough if I trade futures, such as, YM (mini Dow), ES (miniS&P)?

    I somewhat have a feeling that although tradestation is very good but somehow not designed for futures traders.

    Any input?

    Agreed -- TS order entry tools are very rudimentary compared to other tools.... and the miss the point, their clumsy... try to program a strategy... pain in the a$$$...

    their charting is the best...
