Tradestation 10 is unstable and automatic order execution fails 90% of times
Reaching out - perhaps someone has more knowledge on this. Tradestation used to work well during their 9.5 days in terms of automatic strategy order execution.
Currently, their 10.x platform, things are quite worse:
1) order management is rubbish: strategies issue orders that are never filled
2) the latest software version crashes after few days of running with more than 10 strategies on a workspace (sometimes it won't crash but it becomes so slow you have to restart the windows operating system)
3) you are a gonner if you have multiple strategies on the same symbol. don't even try ...
Anyone similar experience, and potential solutions?
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
I used to use version 9.x about a couple years ago, but it started having problems (data wouldn't load, etc), and reinstalling didn't fix it. So I stopped using it, I switched to other software & broker. When I first opened my TradeStation account they told me to use their new version... and it was so buggy it was a joke. That company doesn't seem to want to stay in business, I can't understand them.
There are a number of people (10-20%) who have memory "leak" issues, which supposedly have been fixed with Tradestation 10, Update 69. I have heard mixed reviews from this latest Update - some love it, some hate it.
I have been using TS 10, Update 65 for over a year, and it works pretty well.
Version 9.5 cannot properly automate trading with multiple strategies on the same symbol, but Version 10 can.
