General Information TOP

Product name: TickTrader
Initial Price: N/A
Brief product description: 

TickTrader is automated trading software, that can be used to develop, test, and trade automated trading systems, without any computer programming experience. Instead of a programming language, TickTrader uses a visual interface, where traders can choose the criteria that they want to use in their trading system, using multiple symbols and timeframes, and then test and trade their new trading system, without knowing anything about computer programming. As TickTrader's primary purpose is to develop and trade automated trading systems, its features are somewhat different from regular trading and charting software. TickTrader's main features are as follows: Visual Algorithm Development - Trading systems are developed using a visual display of various technical analysis criteria, which TickTrader calls its four dimensional criteria grid. TickTrader does not require any mathematical knowledge of the indicators being used, nor any computer programming experience. Back Testing - Trading systems can be back tested using historical market data that is included with the TickTrader software. The historical market data is tick data (i.e. every trade is included in the data), so the back testing results will be almost identical to live trading. Simulation Automated Trading - Automated trading in simulation shows how both your trading system and TickTrader itself will perform when trading live. When trading in simulation, TickTrader uses real time data, and displays the profit and loss of your trading system as it would if it were trading live. Live Automated Trading - Live automated trading is what TickTrader was designed for. TickTrader will control every aspect of trading your trading system, including the entry, the management, and the exit. When trading live, TickTrader can send SMS messages to keep you informed of trading and system events (such as TWS disconnections, etc.). (TickTrader is a trademark by TickCOM.)
