Charting
What are you guys using for your charting software?
Hey Jason, sorry for the delayed response but I use Worden's telechart. I think I paid like $800 for the entire year... I think I'll be switching over to another more day-trading friendly software once my subscription is over like eSignal. I really like the Worden though.
I don't know what to use. My futures account has a platform for $25 a month but I'm not thinking I'll be using it enough to warrant paying for it, not just yet anyway. I knew eSignal was kind of expensive.
Mark, is Worden a software package that is geared towards day trading? I hadn't heard of them before.
Ummm... I wouldn't say that Worden is a day trader's choice of charting software probably more attractive for swing traders. I do you it to closely watch 5 minute charts. They offer a great product and I would be sad to have to move away but if I can get an alert program coupled with charting software...

ReplyDeleteI use magic charts. This is a free charting package with lightspeed.

Dom, is lightspeed a yearly subscription?
No, Lightspeed is a trading platform that is free if you are trading with lightspeed. You still have to pay for data feeds though.
