I've used it a lot for back testing, and it does a good job. The other two platforms that have attracted my attention (and then lost it again) have been zorro and c-trader. Both of which have had tick data back testing on their to-do list for as long as I've known they've existed.

I have no idea how it performs sending real orders, I haven't even sent so much as one demo trade. I don't see the point as there are still no brokers on offer that I'd feel comfortable with. Turkish banks don't really do it for me!

There has recently been very little activity on the PT3 forum and platform updates which were once per week seem to have stopped. Maybe this is due to the slow take up rate with brokers?

I have been a bit sad about cTrader lately especially the backtesting functionnality in cAlgo.
It used to be rock solid, and 100% accurate compared to live orders.
But, in september updates they changed something. Don't know what, but their backtester started to behave badly and not mimicking real live results anymore. Now it's as safe as Empty4 tester, to say it all :(
This thread raised a big interest to me in PV3 im gonna look into it asap.

One issue I had with Protrader was that they did the same automatic forced update that Empty4 does. cTrader/cAlgo does the same thing. That process violates required best practices with a live account.

Hi Cody, I will double confirm but last I checked it was up to the broker to force the update. The more I use this platform the more I like it, it feels very fluid, the workspace is incredible and the reporting and information available is miles ahead of Empty4. Will keep you all updated.

Cheers,
Jeremy

Which broker can I use to test protrader on a demo account ?
Seems not broadly available, especially for FX ECN.
Who do you test PT with ?

That's the problem, that's why it would be great if GP start offering it.

Hi, is protrader.com the only place to use the platform or will it be available through other brokers?

Hello Scottmiller,

Protrader.com is not a broker's website ;). We provide technology only and do not compete with our partners.

Please allow me to suggest these brokers - AFAIK they accept retail clients.

FXfinpro

Velocity Trade

Sigma Trading

Best regards
