Customization matters when you live and breathe trading
What you see is what you get? When you’re born to trade, that just won’t cut it.
Trading sounds simple – in theory. Find trading opportunities. Set your strategy. Cash in. Anyone with trading in their veins will tell you it’s nothing like that. The real world of trading isn’t anything like Hollywood portrays. It takes grit and guts. It takes the sort of person that isn’t afraid to tinker.
As the home of those born to trade, we get that. We know that sophisticated traders need to put their mark on everything. Not just their trades and strategies, but their tools and workspaces, as well. The TradeStation ecosystem exists to let you customize from zero to a hundred, whether that’s integration with third-party tools that fit your style, personalizing our trading platforms with your own indicators, or full-on creation of your own trading application via the TradeStation API.
Choose the customization that’s right for you
Platforms
We wouldn’t be doing traders justice if we didn’t make our own platforms extremely customizable. The TradeStation Desktop is the most customizable trading application we offer, featuring highly modifiable workspaces and support for massive multi-monitor setups. In smaller packages, our Web Trading and Mobile App platforms support high degrees of customization as well. Your strategy shouldn’t be limited by your platform.
Third-party tools
When we say we’re here to help you trade your way, we mean it. If you love our reliable brokerage service but want a simpler interface or a unique feature, we hear you.
