Which Platform would you recommend for making Automated trading rules that are sophisticated with minimum coding requirement

Is it NinjaTrader, SierraChart,,, or which?

To give you an example of the logic:
  • Using PSAR Indicator for Buy/Sell signal
  • Before Open with Signal
  • Calculate distance of SL based on PSAR High/Low
  • And Calculate position size based on Sl distance + defined Risk % of Equity
  • Then open with results position size and set SL
  • TP is auto 3x SL distance
This is the core logic, then some filters and condition can be added

Which Platform would allow building this with minimum coding?

Thank you,

You can use NinjaTrader with shark indicator’s “bloodhound” addon to create your entry exit signals. shark indicators also makes another NT add on to manage your trade/risk/position sizing that I’ve never used.

I would also use TradeStation EasyLanguage.

I did see a Strategy Builder demo in NT8 that looks pretty functional as well.
