X_Trader® Version 7
Many high volume futures traders and hedge fund managers consider X_Trader the industry standard. In addition to the popular MD Trader, X_Trader 7 now features charting (X_Study).
- Accurate historical data for prices and traded volume
- The price on the current bar on the X_STUDY chart is the same identical price as on the X_TRADER order entry screen
- Excel® Linking – You can link current values of Technical Indicators and Trendlines into Excel. Excel updates the values in real time as X_STUDY updates.
- Unique Data Sets – FMDS captures more than the traditional elements of price, size and time. Along with each trade, FMDS stores information about the trade that is indispensable to traders. Data such as the current bid and offer at the time of the trade, and whether the trade is a Buy or a Sell, i.e., whether it occurred on the bid or on the offer, provides opportunities to develop custom price and volume analytics that are impossible to create without this key information.
- Innovative Volume Analysis – Six different types of volume displays are provided. Display just the Buys, or just the Sells. Display a traditional total traded volume histogram, or overlay the Volume Delta (net buying vs. selling) on top, color-coded for quick visual interpretation. The Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) indicator displays a running total of net buying vs. selling, providing a quantified view of distribution and accumulation for short- (or longer) term swings. Volume at Price (VAP) display total volume traded at specific price levels via histogram. The FMDS server supplies the VAP data based on the visible bars.
- True Spread Charts – Spread charts based on real-world market conditions. Spreads can be displayed as Bid-to-Bid, Ask-to-Ask comparisons to simulate realistic spread trading. X_STUDY spread charts are full-featured charts and offer all the same analysis functionality as outright instruments.
