I'm not a computer expert so take this with a pinch of salt, but my understanding is that a program based version is likely to be better performing and better optimised for it's job and data handling, order routing, over a browser based platform. Also different browsers can be better at certain tasks than others so you should test with different ones: Chrome, Firefox, Edge etc.
And lastly, using the Tradivate platform as an example that I use , the browser version works in one window only, but the program version had extra plugin features available and has the ability to have separate additional chart/DOM windows.
If your trading platform has a program based option available that would always be my first choice.
You do not win as a trader, you just get to play again the next day. If that game doesn’t appeal to you then you should not trade. Gary Norden |
