“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.”
“I can only say that for the price you get everything you need for a charting package. Better than that stupid NT or TOS that everyone seems to have a hard on for.
I only use the TPO charts so I don't need everything on it. I don't believe in indicators and all that jazz thet the reteail traders swear by them.
I do feel that it has room for improvements on their TPO charts like extending the halfback to the next TPO and color the TPO for high or low volume areas.. The bad. It would be nice to change the volume on the TPO from the right side to the left side like WindowTrader blue. I have brought this up to Sierra. They told me it is a licensing issue. I gues. I also like to see the zooming feature for TPO to be better instead of streching.
Overall though I am very happy with Sierra charts and I feel that they are one of the low rated platforms out there. And they are better than the competition.
I espially like that part that I can run it on a Unix platform.”
“Sierra Chart is a powerful platform, but has a steep learning curve. There are easier out of the box options available. However if you spend the time to learn how to use it the funtionality is almost limitless. I use it daily and my overall experience is very positive.”
“Very powerful charting package but not real easy to learn, but worth it when you do learn. Support leaves something to be desired. All questions lead back to their written support documentation and not always easy to find or follow what they are saying.”
