“The platform is very powerful. That said, it has a steep learning and the user interface is old, and quite frankly, that interface is just awful when you compare to TradingView. But for my futures trading approach, Sierra Charts volumes profile features, market profile (TPO) features and footpting features are very difficult to find elsewhere. The DOM can be configured to make it almost similar to Jigsaw, so in summary, it contains all the order flow I like to use with almost endless configuration possibilities. It's just very complex to get it configured the way you want it without putting in a lot of time to learn how to do it.
Besides Trading view, I've tried Quantower, Tradovate, Ninja Trade, Bookmap and to me they don't compare. I haven't tested MotiveWave, ExoChart, Atas or VolSys...”
“Sierra Charts is an excellent platform to use for trading. I trade futures and have never had a performance issue using Sierra Charts. It runs smooth and fast. It does have a big learning curve but gets much easier the more you use the platform. Sierra Charts offers a lot for the price and I have no reason to go elsewhere. Highly recommended for serious traders.”
