Reviews from actual traders
Great charting, not so good customer support
Very happy I made the switch to TradeStation!
Not bad! Pretty decent for Mac.
Have only started getting the hang of it. Great Platform
Sometimes TradeStation doesn't replace or cancel orders for a couple of minutes, and sometimes this is critical.
TradeStation:
Great broker. Their support is great - on chat and on the phone. Feel pretty secure knowing all conversations are recorded for later reference. Their Documentation of their software is kinda lacking though. I use TradingView primarily because my primary system is Macintosh and they dont have a Mac Desktop app. The app is pretty terrible to use and I only use it because Tradingview's app doesnt have the trading status panel. I miss Tradestations powerful matrix in Trading view. TV's DOM is pretty slow. WOuld be nice to see my statements and a better version of my trade history within Tradingview itself. or maybe even add funds to my account right from TV
TV x TS is missing the trailing stop order type. I know some other broker (cant remember which) has it.
Some thoughts for TradingView:
Give me the ability to customise my workspace more - There's a lot of stuff I don't use.
In the state trading panel where the positions are shown - make the entire row clickable - currently only the SYMBOL clicks me into that symbol's chart.
If I add a horizontal line on my chart, allow me to create a limit order etc from it - or from a collection of lines
Also the order lines should have an option where they begin to form only from the point where the order was created; They extend ALL the way to the left - something I don't personally want
Add "risk" and "potential Profit" / similar columns in the trading position panel
BEST PLATFORM EVER
Does the job.
Best chart functionality out there.
Pretty good. Lately has been having a lot of issues which is why I didn’t give it 5 stars.
I love the Tradestation platform but they need to incorporate the Level 2's (Free) within their platform to earn my business. I still use Think Or Swim and it works out better for me. Free Level 2s and we are in business.
It would be better if I could run the platform on MAC without Parallels or Bootcamp!!
i like working with tradingview. The screener is the only thing I don't like. Has great features but doesn't let you customize e,g, ema/sma values the way I like to use them.
Very fast and accurate.
I like to buy and sell with Tradestation, it's so easy and a lot of benefits. The support team is very helpful and kindly.
Recommended !!!
I have been with Tradestation for a few years and really like it.
customer service is horrible.
slow response
The best platform ever when it comes to technical indicators, custom code, data, speed, and trading.
