I'm sure it's been covered a lot here but I wasn't able to find anything by searching.
I'm looking at some tips on Metatrader vs other tools (even Python, which I'm familiar with from work but i don't know in which environment it could be used for trading). Also, how is R when it comes to algo trading?
For FX I suppose MT4/5 is the best (just because it's been built with FX in mind) but what about the stock market?
Also, how is Tradestation compared to MetaTrader? (this one I worked with before, but not Tradestation)
I'm not worried about picking up any language, I'm a software developer, but I want to make an informed decision.
Thanks a lot!
Please send me a link to a similar thread if you know about one, I don't want to start a new discussion if there are already discussion on the topic.
