Hello omega-list,
Over the weekend I finally got around exploring TSPro features etc.
I have one general, quick take to share for info and feedback and a
couple of q's for those who use it.
I trade only futures, mainly day trading e-mini SP's and ACE Bonds. I
currently get two FutureSource feeds for TS4 at around $900 per month
including several rt exchanges. Great setup for reliability and low
maintenance. But too much in this era for data. I want to keep one
FS and switch the second to:
A low cost, low maintenance alternative.
I don't want to learn newsoftware.
I want to use as much of my current omega systems/indicators as I can.
I don't want to learn another language.
Two insights came to me (I'm slow--I'm sure many of you had these
years ago). First, the cheap data feeds are the ones you get thru a
broker (NextTrend, myTrack). Data is their loss leader. Second, it
quickly starts to look like TSPro is a pretty good option for me. I
hate to acknowledge that bec I think the company has played fast and
loose with its customers.
My next info to get is:
1. what is it like to trade futures, esp SP minis with them?
2. what is their commission schedule like for my level of activity?
3. if one trades futures only, is the minimum opening balance $20K or
$50K?
I'd appreciate any comments and answers to the last three questions.
