NinjaTrader with TT feed or Zen-fire feed or both feeds together....or just use XTrader (I use these through Vcap Futures). For charting use what ever you like............trade execution is the most critical aspect of your trading so do not skimp on your trade platform. XTrader version 7 should be re-released with XStudy in the next month or two if you just have to have your charts with your platform... http://www.tradingtechnologies.com/xstudy.aspx Here is the link for the XStudy brochure............. http://www.tradingtechnologies.com/documents/X_STUDY.pdf
I should have clarified - I do not use TS for order execution. I love the platform that I am using now - it's newer and a TT knock off. As for charting, that's my problem and that's where I need some suggestions.
OK.........I have used Esignal, Ensign, Qcharts, Neoticker, CQG and several others in the past....Ensign with Esignal feed seems like a good set-up these days. Once XStudy is re-released then all you have to use is the XStudy charting for free with an XTrader 7 account. In the mean time....... http://www.ensignsoftware.com/
