Do you use trading software? Are you happy with your choice? Did
your use of this software change your approach to trading?

I'd like to hear reviews from users of Window on Wallstreet Daytrader,
and TradeStation. What you think of the software, how long it took
you to get up and running, strengths and weaknesses, any and all
comments will be appreciated.

How important is optimization of systems? Daytrader will be offering
an update soon that uses TradeStation's programming language for
system writing. Does anybody think that that makes Daytrader more
attractive?

I'm tired of reading all of the hype in the advertising. I'd like to
hear from people who use the software to make money. Thanks for you
patience and assistance.

If you are serious about making a living trading, you will need to do
it online.

Terminal based systems are obsolete. If your machine is down you
need to be able to walk into any Internet Caf? anywhere, at anytime
and make your decisions.

I have the Q-charts software/data package and use J-trader to submit orders
on-line from home.

Two times in 3months my J-trader feed has gone down while in a trade.

I simple call my brokers 'order desk' over the phone and give them my order.

Any online connection is more likely to go down than the software at your
computer.

I would prefer to choose my own personal charting software than be stuck
with what your on-line broker gives you. My Q-charts data software is very
basic and give you no abilities to add-on indicators or write formulas.
