I think Amibrokers Charting is very good. (I have used many other
platforms)
I agree with the other posters here.
Please advise what is missing in your opinion.
Thomasz will likely advise you on how to adjust your settings to
duplicate whatever you are looking for, or possbly add what is
lacking in your opinion.
What more could you ask for?
:-)
