Hi, I have many basic questions which I am confused on. 1) I trade US equities. Do I still need a broker (I use IB currently) 2) Do I need a data plan or just use IB? I sort of hate IB and historical tick data limitations, so what would the cost be to add live streaming data for US equities which supports historical tick data and replay? 3) With chart trader: Can it position size for me to the size of my account? Can I tell it to trade 25K of my 50k account. Place an entry at $10 and it calculate my shares or is there an indicator or method that can do this? Can I attach stop loss order for hardstops? Either say a $100 hardstop or a % hardstop? Is there auto breakeven capabilities? 4) I have a few very basic indicators I programmed for when I traded with Ninjatrader. How can I get them converted to Sierra charts? Is there any basic coding builders? I am looking to add orderflow footprints to my trading (that is what is motivating this) also, I am just returning to trading after a 5 year break. The main question I have though really is the costs. It looks like if IB data can be used costs are about 26-36 per month? If I wanted an upgrade from IB data for US equities what costs would be added? Thank you |
