Guys, really useful information. It's fabulous

My acquaintance said that he uses PT multistation's PTL strategy builder with its optimization, back testing and debugging tools (supports EasyLanguage, C#, VB.NET, etc).

 

Anyone know how it compares to other automated strategy builders, and in particular back-testing tool?

 

Still waiting for someone to comment on strategy building in PTmultistation...

I guess no one uses it, ask your acquaintance perhaps?

Anyone using Deltix? I've been using their new retail offering and it's really something else. I've already rapidly developed one full system and I didn't have a single complaint about the platform, very powerful and intuitive from beginning to end. Vertical trading software suites are finally coming of age to us retail traders :cheers:

Python, pandas, numpy, scipy, matplotlib, r and rpy would be my recommendation now.

for backtesting what are the pro's and con's comparing tradesense from trade navigator with other more advanced but also more complicated languages like easy language from tradestation?

 

put differently what is not possible to do in tradesense. For example 2 executions on the same bar etc.
