Looking for better software than MT4

Hi,

I am semiscalping/trendfollowing for small gains.

I have tried the MT4 software and I don't care for the way you create new trades and modify/close running trades. Its very slow, especially while scalping.

I like the idea of trading on the chart like FXCM offers (not trading there, so dont suggest it ). You place a trade and can adjust your TP/SL just by sliding the lines on the chart.
It would also be nice to have something like being able to set up standard trades (lot-size, TP/SL-level as a +/- to the tradestart) combined with one-click trade begin/close.

I'm looking at FinFX, Dukascopy or Fastbrokers (though the last two has fairly high commission) as possible brokers. Are there any ECN-brokers offering the kind of software I'm looking for or are there 3rd party solutions?

My account will only be €2.000 so not all ECN-brokers are within my reach just yet

Thank you for your help.

Hi,
I am testing the Divisa Capitals MT4 (Currenex bridge) with MT4 DOM plugin. You can define pre-sets (lotsize, SL, TP) and it offers one click execution. Minimum deposit for live account is 2500$ (accounts only in USD).
I am really satisfied with the demo and seems that I will open a live account with them shortly.

There are 2 ways to look at this..

1. Use scripts and hotkeys for speed and keep MT4. For example..Alt-A could be assigned to a script with 1 lot, TP of 20 pips and SL of 10 pips etc etc etc. Infinite number of hotkeys and scripts. Now what about moving the TP and Sl. there are two ways for this. One is to use a script that employs WindowPriceonDropped function or to use a script such as VisualSL or luktom's. All of this will give you what you want to scalp with.

2. Other way is to use something other then MT4 such as TradeInterceptor or NinjaTrader. I don't use either but have tested them. Go to their sites, download a demo and if you like it then sign up with a broker that uses it. Both are free I believe.
