Trade Ideas

Very Good Tool and very good customer service

I have been using Trade-ideas for my trading systems and I get the trade alerts real time before I place my orders.

Recently I sent an email to their customer service to request some new features. I reviewed my request and sent an email saying "what is possible now" and "what is possible in the near future" with in 24 hours. I like their professionalism and great customer service.

I wish them good luck and I recommend this product to my friends.

Great app if you take time to learn it

I really like the potential of Trade Ideas. Very useful when you use it to screen a pre-defined list of stocks. I would usually use StockFetcher to screen for stocks the night before and then load those stocks into Trade Ideas to get my real-time alerts. StockFetcher didn't offer real-time stock screening.

My complaints: There was a big learning curve for me. Since there is no programming language, you have to learn how to combine pre-defined filters together to achieve what you want. A lot of times, I just ended up using some of their pre-defined filters or asked them to code me a specific one. The price of the oddsmaker addon was very high (even though I waited for a sale to buy it), but was an essential part of my testing, so I don't know why it wasn't included.

Found no use for it

It was a solid piece of software however I found no use for it. The alerts are difficult to make and the website is really shitty when it comes to support.

As a day trader I trade fairly quickly, I lost money on every trade I took based on the scanned list.

If your patient enough to figure the system out, I am sure you can really make it work however for myself I found no use for it cause due to its difficulty. Stock Finder 5 from Worden is far better in my opinion.

Best of the best!!! Must have!!

Let me tell you if you don't use TRADE IDEAS you're missing lot of opportunities out there in trading world!!! This is one of the advantage of having Scottrade Elite because trade ideas comes free with it. I use trade ideas program all day from market open to close.

you can fully customize the program and filter or almost anything from stock moving on volume to stocks losing big market cap in minutes.This program is best for day traders and scalpers. I scalp a lot during market hours and always looking for hot stocks intraday .

I can't imagine daytrading without TRADE IDEAS.It's like one of those things that u have to have for this business to stay on top of your game.

My current scanner

This is the scanner I'm currently using. It's not as great as some of the other ones but it's fairly intuitive and gives you what you need, and one of the cheaper scanners. Use this one if you're poor but need a customizable multi-window scanner. What I dislike about this is their input to each variable - some of them simply don't make sense and requires you to tweek them many, many times just to get what you're needing. I don't want ratios, derivatives, untweekable consolidation and volume scans - give me something more programmable yet user-friendly. In the end it's worth the price you pay and does what you need after about a month's worth of usage and feel. I can't give this a low score due to the price.

Tons of tools, support staff is good, competitive pricing

I demoed their software along with eSignal and Ninjatrader, and TI is the best, IMO. Not only is their website very handy for reference to prospective technical trades, but their software is top-notch - Level II, Time & Sales, algorithmic (full or partial), etc. The export capabilities to Excel and the like are much better than their competitors, allowing for a deeper quantitative analysis of your strategies.

Very highly recommended.

Free Tools are Great

I have used their free screeners for about 6 months. They are very powerful and because they cost nothing, it is a no brainer.

Generally easy to use, although the more you learn/educate yourself, the better screens you can set up.

I will probably start paying for the premium service soon.

Very happy

Very happy with Trade ideas in which you can define a wide array of criteria and get unlimited scans based. If there is a scan you want to run you will find it on Trade Ideas. I'm amazed at how stable and reliable this program is. Have not encountered any problems, a little pricey but you can save if you buy the yearly package.
