The opinions expressed in these forums do not represent those of C2, and any discussion of profit/loss is not indicative of future performance or success. There is a substantial risk of loss in trading. You should therefore carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your financial condition. You should read, understand, and consider the Risk Disclosure Statement that is provided by your broker before you consider trading. Most people who trade lose money.
I am a long time TradeStation developer specializing day trading of stock index futures. My stuff is currently traded only by an autotrading broker who uses NinjaTrader to route the orders. I write all the code, include the part to interface with NT. Orders are typically limit orders, but they don’t have to be. Can someone recommend a good approach to sending my signals to C2. I won’t use the email. I also want this to be a portfolio system.
Thanks for any assistance.
Thanks, but I won’t use the email interface. What’s the next option?
There is no other option (unless you can convince TradeStation management to open up their proprietary software to 3rd party interfaces).
But, Tom, I’m a little puzzled by your categorical statement that you “won’t use the email interface.” Why not? Just in case your hesitation is caused by the fact that the word “email” is in the description, let me be clear: the buy/sell signals are not actually sent by email. Rather, we intercept SMTP commands and send the signals direct to C2, without the use of email. (That is, we spoof an SMTP server, and the TradeStation software is none the wiser.)
Matthew
Thanks anyway. I’ll think about.
