day traders are dead. even worse is that with quants even successful traders have less chance.
if you are positional use what your broker provides for free. you can also use Google, tradingview etc for basic indicators.
with more odds against you why you want to add more costs.
if you earned money trading then your question is relevant.

equivolume can done through Kite Charts of Zerodha. as it is having option of plotting Volume candles.

Apart from tht in this Age of HFT and Alogs.. One needs to define What is "Complex Stretegy" and what are the simple ones.

There are people who find Pivot trading is Complex but OFA or for tht matter Renko Easy.

and even if those points are addressed, one should not Select for NT just for tht... NT is still bigger then this to the point tht Its full potential can't be used in Indian Trading and Investing environment. Specially the way NSE and SEBI are running things here.

Point is if Kite can do it why cant amibroker do this simple thing. The problem with ami is that they have tied their x-axis with time due to which complex strategies which are independent of time cant be handled properly with amibroker

amibroker is really not meant for algos and hfts. in amibroker u really can't save bid ask data so you cant to do any serious stuff of HFT using amibroker


If you could not use that it does not mean no one else can use its full potential

i personally use amibroker and have very less frequently used NT. But the facts quoted by mt4 are correct that NT is moe suitable for complex strategies and amibroker sometimes feel lacking some important aspects. You code some strategies where x axis is not time and is some other variable amibroker will not be able to handle that. In amibroker x-axis is time, y can be anything else eg. volume, price, averages etc but x-axis is time that is the biggest bottleneck of ami.

If you have not come across some complex strategy where ami failed to do the job then you really cant comment on it.

One simple example can some one draw equivolume charts on amibroker ?

Code:

yes there are workarounds to represent equivolume using gfx images but more typical stuff you cant achieve using gfx even and the volume of hardwork required to achieve it using gfx does not not make worth it. I am a loyal amibroker user :D but what i want to convey is amibroker does not fit every where and has some bottlenecks (i have listed one which i came across and there may be more to it which are beyond my thought process same is the case with NT also)

OMG! This happens when amateurs are talking on the internet. There is nothing tied to time. It just shows your lack of knowledge.

Similar goes for bid and ask data storage.


BTW, here is one prime example why no professional institution would ever use a software like Ninjatrader for serious trading. http://www.trade-robots.com/blog/ninjatrader-so-good-that-backtest-results-are-random

Now now. Take it easy Mr Trash. I am a newbie and appreciate all of you guys here to take the time and reply. It means a lot.
A request I have. I had to repay student loans, so started trading. But now in loss . Can you suggest a strategy that will give me nominal profits at least. And even minimal losses, if not any.
