Opinions on system trading software

I've been on FF for a few years now and have been primarily a discretionary trader. Just got into system trading recently, and I wanted to see if anyone had any opinions on what's out there in terms of software, etc. In terms of the free ones, I've tried MT4 (with InterbankFX) and a new one that I stumbled on called FX Tek (fxtek.com), which looked promising. For the latter, you need a demo account with GFT. Also tried TradeStation, and looked into Amibroker, but I don't think they do forex. I know people at FF are heavily into MT4, so I just wanted to see if anyone had any recommendations as to the ones I've mentioned, or if there's anything else people would recommend. I cannot program EAs, and I'm so busy at my job that it will take me a really long time to learn the language. Anything easy and powerful out there? I don't mind paying, but of course would rather have something for free. Thanks in advance!

Powerful and free is hard to come by. Find a trading system to use, and I'm sure if a programmer here on FF sees value in that system, they will code it.

Thanks for the reply, Ronald! I guess you're right. So maybe I don't need free. As I said, I'd be willing to pay. Just looking for software or a platform to help me easily build and test my own systems without learning code and without asking other people to help code. Thanks for your help.

Quick and easy EAs

Crap! I better close my trades before TradeStation reads this.

Have you used FX Tek? I have, only recently, and its pretty easy to use. The built in system trading tools are great, but it needs more resources to build systems without coding them. But according to them, its coming soon. And since I trade with GFT Forex, and they dont offer easy to use system tools, I really enjoy FX Tek.
