Scalping NQ with 1 min chart. Should I use Tradingview or Quantower
I have AMP as my broker. Im scalping NQ futures with 1 min chart. Should I use tradingview to place my order or Quantower? Will it make a different. I heard that with Tradingview there is a second delay on price. Dont know if Quantower is better,
Thanks
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
This is just my experience, and I'm no expert! I use Quantower (QT) and TradingView (TV) regularly, and I like both. I use TV mainly to keep track of my watchlists, so while I don't know what it's like to trade with TV, I'm familiar with using the platform for charting. This is where TV leaves QT behind. Scrolling through charts is a smooth process, and when I plot various drawing tools with the magnet feature turned on, the drawing tools lock onto the various OHLC areas with an accuracy that QT lacks sometimes.
There are times when I have to restart QT, because of various glitches. It can be a buggy platform, haha. All of that being said though, I still like it. Out of the platforms I've tried, it's been the easiest to use. All of the main features are grouped together by category and color, and the colors are very pretty. There are a lot of different features that you get with QT, specifically the free AMP version, that other platforms charge a premium for. OCO bracket orders show up on the chart pretty much instantaneously, which can be very important if you trade in fast markets (AMP's version of Multicharts .NET for example has a delay).
@Mies advice is good. Try both and see which one you like, if you want. I like having redundancies in place in case something stops working, so I'm familiar enough with more than one platform just in case the one that I'm currently using craps out mid-trade, and I have to switch to another platform to adjust my order. Or I could always just call my broker! Anyway, that's off-topic. Hope this helps!
Edit: Whoops, I didn't realize the thread was a few months old. Will try to be more mindful moving forward.
