I am currently using Tradestation but I am looking for another platform because it is not possible to manage orders directly from the chart. The first thing which comes to my mind is Ninjatrader.. however the OCO capability is not serverside...

So can someone suggest a platform where i can trade from the chart and the OCO functionality is serverside?

If Iam not mistaking then the upcoming MultiCharts 7 could do that. At least with Interactive Brokers. Might work with others at well, did not check..

Serverside OCO depends on your broker.

You have to have a broker that supports server side oco, in addition to a zenfire data feed. For instance, with a Ninjatrader multi broker license, you can get zenfire data feed from any broker, and execute orders with Interactive Brokers which supports server side oco.

Zen fire supports OCO. But like the document in post #4 says, it is simulated. This is not a platform limitation but a broker (zen fire) limitation.

Pretty much your only choice is IB if you require server side OCO. You can use IB with Ninja, MultiCharts, etc.

If I am not mistaken - rithmic + ( multicharts or sierra charts) - does allow Server side OCO orders.

Also OEC+Sierra Charts allow this - as per this link :

Thanks.
