Do you use this yourself? I was recommended this back in the day and I've seen quite a few of their 'homework' videos. It looks like a really great platform, so I would definitely consider it if I were shopping for a new one. It's rare you hear someone mention it these days, so I figured I'd ask.
obviously i have used all the platforms there are and i would rate amibroker #1 and multicharts #2 all others are lacking if you want to do your own thing and not settle for canned crap. there are simply too many nuances for me to list them all just take 30 years to figure it all out like i did. i know this for a fact the largest funds in the world use amibroker because it will allow you to do whatever you wish to do. making money requires out of the box thinking, so don't buy a box. speed - the load of complex calculations you can throw at amibroker is daunting, so i really like it. but i will say that it also has a learning curve since most users are very guarded with coding projects. it's mainly a boutique software with heavy participation of the owner author of the software and it has stayed that way since the beginning. not a bad thing.
Okay, thank you very much, Sir! I will try out multicharts/multicharts .Net and amibroker. The only thing what made me thought about amibroker was the small amount of supported data provider. Furthermore, I read: it is just a one-man company
all true and valid points you make thus the reason, while i own amibroker "very low cost" i prefer to use multicharts especially coming form ndr, system writer, trade station era.. of 30 years ago. multicharts flexibility of data feeds in unrivaled...
Yes, I use it. For many years. Excellent and creative engineers. Not so interested in marketing to the retail user.
Well for pure trading, research is not that important to me. Speed, ability to write algorithms, efficient use of screen real estate most important, and not a CPU hog so I can run research on another app. I like Medvedtrader. Have been using it for a long time and have written lots of algos. I've yet to use all the features. The part I really like is that you can scan a thousand stocks that meet the params of your algo and then go trade them. They've got a website and some youtube vids. They're not tied to a particular broker so you can aggregate multiple accounts into one platform. There's a learning curve with any new SW but you can DL a limited free version and try a few charts and the zillion indicators and play.
I used with DATEK before they got bought out by Ameriturd and during, before PDT rules, day trading stocks, good times!!
Medved, liked it, even on here, nice!! Hi dude, thanks for your software all those years back! Still written in Delphi was it ??
