I opened a small account and am using q trader in said account only because of the brackets. I have to say, I really love it so far. I also use X_Trader Pro which costs me $1500 per month with no built in brackets and CTS who's pricing is a bit all over but I get charged about $300 per month. I am happy so far with the $40 per month Q Trader! I'll let you all know if anything changes.

I think QTrader is really good value for money compared to other pricey platforms out there. Having said that I never tried either of those you mentioned.

Which platform is CTS? Is that Cunningham Trading Systems?

It is Cunningham and offers brackets and options on futures.

what are you using for charts?
Outrights and spread charts? i think u told me but i forget
im hoping to get my Sierra switched to CQG .. still with TT feed.. and then get spread charts.. maybe a holiday project
Spread charts are fine with Qtrader except cant have all that i need .. grids of spread charts or combination.. of 15m, tick etc on same view without switching tabs

This is basic but I have looked everywhere in Q Trader, does anybody here know how to change the background color on a chart? I have found everything else.

Thanks

Hello again,

I am curious as to what the button my arrow is pointing to does or is and most importantly how I can un select it. It seems to center but since I pressed it last week I can't undo it/cant make it go back (Does this matter?).

Thank you guys.
