Many day traders are interested in automated trading, where their trading systems are traded automatically by a computer program. For traders that have some experience with computer programming, there are several pieces of automated trading software available. One example is TradeStation, which includes a proprietary programming language called EasyLanguage, that can be used for trading system testing and live trading. However, for traders that do not have any computer programming experience, there were not any pieces of automated trading software available ... until recently.

TickTrader is a relatively new piece of automated trading software, that can be used to develop, test, and trade automated trading systems, without any computer programming experience. Instead of a programming language, TickTrader uses a visual interface, where traders can choose the criteria that they want to use in their trading system, and then test and trade their new trading system, without knowing anything about computer programming.

If you are a day trader that would like to use automated trading, but do not have any computer programming experience, TickTrader may be able to help you. Further information about TickTrader (such as some of its main features, and its system requirements) is available in the Introduction to TickTrader article, and the TickTrader software can be downloaded from the TickTrader web site.
