I have choice to make about platforms, I am currently familiar with NT 6.5 but I have no particular love for it. Progrmming in C# is beyond me at this point, but I can make strategies using the wizard native to NT.

I feel that Big Mike is right, and would only add one thing. Beware of the influence of the Trading Platform you choose to " Dictate " the " Trading Style " that you steer towards !!!.
