Hello.

I am not new to Forex but want to extend beyond what my capabilities are today.

Looking for some input on what others feel are the best charting packages available today. Here are things that are important to me:

 

  1. Ability to create scripts that mirror trading system signals
  2. Good user base that can help with programming when necessary
  3. Ability to do backtesting of trading systems
  4. Good value for the money

Another quick question ... is the data feed separate from the software in most charting packages?

FWIW ... today I am using basic charts inside FXSolutions GTS along with some other free charts.

Profitable ... but want to be more so.

Thanks in adavnce ... GREAT forum!

- Chris

Try Wealth-Lab Developer (www.wealth-lab.com) and get data from dataHQ (www.forex.datahq.com.au). This is the combination that I use.
