“I've been using MotiveWave for more than 4 years now and I have only good things to say about it. During this time I used the platform with 2 separate brokers and I never experienced the slightest problem. It covers everything a trader needs and more. Besides being robust and reliable (very important), day in, day out, user friendly is the feature I enjoy most. Considering that I am a very demanding person and I pursuit perfection, I tried to find (discover I should say..) some flaws of any kind about the platform to report, but honestly I can't find any. Rare for me.I know it is hard to believe, but so far I had no lags, crashes, glitches or any of the usual negative surpises the others platforms offer, whatsoever. Quite remarkable for a software, I have to say. Above all, its a platform I can trust and needless to say I am very happy with my original decision to go with MotiveWave. Bear in mind, I am a trader with 15 years experience and I have seen a lot, as the title says. The good, the bad and everything in between. Well, for a change, Good and Good only it is! In overall, I am extremely satisfied and I will definitely keep using it in the future. Well done.”

“Good:
- Customizable
- Versatile
- Easy to Use
- Native Mac App
- Custom indicators can be developed
- Crosstrade to Micro Contracts
Bad:
- Doesn't show position on chart at the entry price (only an indicator marker)
- Buy/Sell Buttons were removed, you have to trade from the chart trader or Dom which take a lot of space if you have a lot of charts on the screen
- No export to Excel/CSV of trade history
- Software gets stuck for a couple of seconds when volatility is very high (news events, a huge pending order gets traded, ...), this happens every time and on all my machines
- No possibility for multiple Rithmic Connections”
