I would like to explore system builder software option. I know about Adaptrader but I don't know if it is highly regraded or not or if it is widely used.

What are some of the similar software like Adaptrader? What's the best one? Any input will be appreciated.

I've used the trial. Nothing special really. Mike Bryant includes some canned indicators. However I did hear that you get 1 or 2 real good systems if you purchase but this was a while ago. Can't say if it's still the case. Put it this way - if it was really that good it would be several thousand dollars.
Another similar software is https://www.thegrailsystem.com

I came across another system builder software but the name evades me right now. I do remember it was priced at $50k tho! Will post if I remember..

If u use the link I gave you I believe it does point and click and generates the EL code when u use the built in indicators.

Remembered another site .. https://www.tradingblox.com

Not sure if tradingblox is for Tradestation though.

Beware that none of these systems will work forever and you will have to re-optimize periodically assuming you can ever find anything that works

For example:
ES.D 1997-2017. Daytrading strategy. Roundturn comm+slip 30 USD, stoploss 350 USD, 100k net profit, DD 4k.
If someone is interested I can send the TS report, so you can see the results in detail.

Would love to have the tradestation code..
