"Best of the Best" 1997
MTA, Market Technicians Assoc.
TradeStation

The Best of The Best Awards are viewed as a vehicle to foster excellence in strong creative analysis talents and are presented in such a format as to encourage creative construction. The Best of The Best Awards are given in nine categories including: Price Analysis/Market Forecasting, Cycle and Wave Analysis, Volume/Supply and Demand Analysis, Sentiment/Psychological Analysis, Relative Strength/Momentum Analysis, Point and Figure Analysis, Computer Assisted Analysis, Education, and Money Management.

To win The Best of The Best Award, a product or person must first be nominated from a member of the Market Technicians Association. Once deemed eligible, a committee made up of members of MTA votes and selects the recipient of the award. In the final analysis, The Best of The Best is selected by a colleague.

"To be selected as The Best of The Best in Computer Assisted Analysis is a great honour," stated Bill Cruz, Co-CEO of TradeStation Technologies. "To receive the recognition coming from within the market industry itself is what makes this award most meaningful."

Once Again, TradeStation Is Voted #1 By Readers of Stocks & Commodities Magazine

TradeStation Chosen Best Trading Software for the Fourth Year in a Row Miami, FL, March 21, 1997 For the fourth year in a row, readers of Stocks & Commodities Magazine (S&C), an invaluable resource for traders and investors, have awarded TradeStation the 1996 award for Best Trading Software.

Reviewers

"Its greatest strength, and what makes this package the most useful software I have ever seen, is its ability to perform historical trading system development and then monitor these systems in real time…Trading system development is the true strength of this product. TradeStation is the easiest, fastest and most reliable program I know of for developing mechanical trading systems….For trading system analysis, design and implementation, TradeStation is the finest program I've seen, including many online systems that cost much more but do much less…I've come to the conclusion that the only way to get a better program than TradeStation is to write it yourself. I have found TradeStation to be an indispensable tool that vastly improves my ability to test virtually any trading system I can dream up."
Fred G. Schutzman, Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities, July '95

"There is no way on earth that I would be able to monitor the number of indicators and number of studies and number of systems that I can program TradeStation to do for me."

"TradeStation, with superb graphics, allows me to see things with a kind of clarity that none of the other market programs that I use offer up for me."
P. Raffalovich, Georgia

"It has the ability to do just about everything. ...it has everything and the kitchen sink, so to speak. I can't think of anything you can't do in TradeStation."
L. Williams, California

"There is really very little comparison between TradeStation and CQG, Aspen or Market Vision or any of these other products because the ability to design your own system is pretty much non-existent in these other programs or to such a very limited degree that they're basically useless."
K. Bang, California

"At a minimum, if you haven't computerised your trading processes before, or the indicators, especially where you can adjust the indicators, the bar lengths, all the parameters, to find out why certain indicators work and certain indicators don't work -- it's worth it for that alone."
D. Worstine, New York

"I thought I had a great S&P intraday system before buying TradeStation based on 5 years of watching intraday screens. Since starting to use TradeStation seriously some 4 months ago, I have been able to more clearly define my system and improve its results by over 200%. I can't imagine life without it now."
C. Easter, Maryland

"I can honestly say if it were not for TradeStation, I would not be able to reach my goal, let alone be profitable. Thank you for this fantastic product. I will always be grateful."
G. Farris, Indiana

"After trading S&P Futures for several months, I realised that my system needed minor adjustments every few months because of market volatility. With TradeStation's ability to back test my last month of trading, I can make all those small changes and get my system back to peak performance within minutes."
F. Brodersen, Illinios

" In one trade, I increased profits more than $5,000 by exiting early on a TradeStation PaintBar™ chart signal."
W. Masciarelli, Florida

"We're trading systems in real-time, quite profitably, that have been designed on TradeStation that I don't think I could have done any other way. "
D. Rice, California

"My performance track record stands at 285% net rate of return for my clients, and I attribute that specifically to TradeStation."
F. Miller, Florida
