Yeah, junk. Contact an ophthalmologist if 4 letters are to difficult to read. What I do consider prof? The opposite of NT, for example. Oh poor me, but whether it is $1000 or 1500 NT is not worth it to get my money, Mr. Salesman. We are in tools to trade section here. Your blah blah's got nothing to do with the fact about the value of NT. A professional craftsman would not choose this obviously limited one http://thumbs.dreamstime.com/z/child-s-toy-hammer-10422684.jpg over this http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/84/Claw-hammer.jpg to knock your rotten woodworm cottage into shape. If he is really bad and brain dead then he would of course.

I am neither talking about SC nor am I using it. I am talking about NT. And yes, it is an amateurish platform. It has no professional value other than being a charting platform. Popular? Yeah, maybe popular for most of the "I need free charts or otherwise I need to stop trading" group of people of 3rd world regions (US is 3rd world region too now, BTW ). No one being serious with trading would pay $1500 for this junk.

Agreed NT is an amateurish limited software IMO. I could only think of paper traders using that one.

Newb to Trading Platforms Needs Some Help Choosing a Platform
a4360884 replied to fmj's topic in Tools of the Trade
Just one example drawback of at least NT is that it doesn't even support true portfolio backtest. Just backtest of baskets which means individual backtests one after another. I'm not sure but with TS it's the same but again not sure. Nevertheless AB can do both ... true portfolio backtesting and portfolio trading. -

Try AmiBroker. It's better than NT and TS and more powerful. Also you can do much more with AFL than you can do with EL. Besides that you can program in C/C++ as they offer a free SDK. But it's also possible to program in C# as there is a SDK called .NET for AmiBroker. Not affiliated with them but can honestly say that IMO AB is most flexible one around and pretty robust and reliable. -
Ninjatrader, Tradestation?? Is this a turtles race? lol But of course in a universe of turtles MC might be one of that fastest ones. But I don't take part in turtles races. I'm talking about real champs not some students projects like Ninjatrader. Besides slowness MC doesn't even provide portfolio trading. Also portfolio backtesting is useless since they don't have realistic currency conversion. And what about rotational trading, scoring, ranking,... non existent. As I said the software is quite forgettable at that price level.

No, those "geniuses" (or let's rather call them nuts) are offering two versions. lol
-
No portfolio trading, no pair trading. Then it's useless for Forex because you can only convert on fixed rate. Stupid. Slow data import. Slower loading times. Slow backtest, optimization, .... etc., these are just a few examples. The whole software is just overpriced uselessness.

Multicharts is complete waste of time.

What a joke ..........
