Building Winning Trading Systems with TradeStation

Before System Writer (the grandfather of today’s current TradeStation), system developers and traders did not have a commercialized software platform to develop their trading ideas. We are not talking about charting packages; we are talking about programs that could understand a trading strategy based on technical analysis. Sure, there were other sophisticated programs in the 1980s that could be used, but they required a thorough understanding of programming, additional software, and extreme patience with the software developer. Most of these programs were not open platform; you had to program within their limited scripting language and could not share your programs with others. The programs that were potentially open platform usually required a separate editor and compiler and a very sophisticated user. In fact, we developed and still use a package that is based on a FORTRAN compiler. The System Writer/ TradeStation programs provided one sleek package that gave the ability to test, optimize, and trade to the trading masses. TradeStation has been accepted worldwide as the premier market analysis platform and the standard against which other trading/testing platforms are measured. The latest version of
TradeStation has evolved into more than just software; it is a fully selfcontained trading platform that incorporates direct access brokerage for
futures and equities traders. Along with the birth of TradeStation 6.0, Omega
Research has been reborn and renamed to TradeStation Securities.
We are not here to proclaim TradeStation’s Securities products to be the
best in the business, but we are here to educate their users on how to use what
is accepted as the industry standard. Of course Omega Research has had their
problems; all software developers have had their problems. Recently, it was
heard that the inventor of the CTRL + ALT + DEL key sequence at IBM stated that he may have created it, but Microsoft made it famous. What sets
TradeStation apart from the other software packages is its powerful scripting
language EasyLanguage. EasyLanguage is more powerful than easy; it really
isn’t a scripting language, but more of a full-blown programming language. It
can be compared to BASIC, FORTRAN, Pascal, or C. In fact, it is based off of
a Pascal compiler and has been around since 1987. Sam Tennis, the father of
EasyLanguage, wanted to provide traders with a simple and logical language
that required little programming knowledge. In our opinion, he was successful
in this endeavor.
