Programming a custom indicator which finds stocks that completed bullish candlestick patterns on last day’s close helps me sort stocks in the Ninja Trader market analyzer, in case I am looking to buy stocks.

As I have cancelled my Esignal subscription due to high cost, I gave NinjaTrader another go as far as US stock trading concerns. Given the fact there isn’t any free real time data vendor, Kinetick offers free End of Day data for position and longer-term trading than day trading. I’m quite satisfied by their free service, although I have pointed out some false numbers and charts, especially when [...]

Ninja Trader, a powerful stock trading technical analysis charting software, and Betfair, the leading sports betting exchange, can now be combined to help sports traders predict odds movements. Technical analysis has been difficult to be applied in Betfair graphs and traders have been using third-party trading software to plot technical analysis indicators. Now Quantsports fills the market gap as the [...]

Trader Workstation is the stock trading software of Interactive Brokers, my online stock broker. While I was stock trading yesterday, I video recorded the order management window for about half a minute to show you how a portfolio looks like while trading. The order management window of the trading software includes all stocks and currency pairs I had traded, showing long and short orders, bid and [...]

Bfexplorer Pro and BetAngel Pro are well known Betfair trading platforms. These pieces of Betfair trading software offer enough features for the most experienced Betfair trader, such as a trading ladder, quick refresh times and one-click betting. I have been a BetAngel Pro user for many years and decided to make a video of both trading platforms showing the same horse race betting odds along with the [...]

I am using a multi-monitor setup for online trading with Interactive Brokers Trader WorkStation or TWS in short. The stock trading software allows you to open many stock charts and windows at the same, taking advantage of the desktop space. By trying to make the most out of it while day trading, all 4 monitors display trading graphs, account and quote information. Starting from the first monitor on [...]

Most of traders at Interactive Brokers use third party charting software for their trading graphs.
