Trading Platforms

Any update on GoMarkets AMR?

And, Graeme50, Are you live trading with Saxo? They were recommended to me too.

I've looked at using Saxo but I have a problem using the charting, it says my Microsoft.net framework is outdated and I need to install 2.0 but when I try that it says it can't install because the 2.0 service pack is already installed. When I go to uninstall the service pack my comp says the path can't be found, I'm not a tech so I gave it a rest until i can get some help.

This is the official site for the .NET framework for need:

This is one that is meant to work for SP2 it is a well known site also:

Best of luck

I'll take a bit longer yet to decide on Gomarkets, I'm just looking very closely at the data feed as others on ASF have raised issues regarding spikes and dirty data. I haven't seen anything unusual personally though.

I'm also looking at GFT after all my digging around, about to meet up with one of their "senior sales manager" online to chat. GFT is interesting as it features a light web-based platform as well as a more powerful platform for your desktop...also have ASX500 equity CFDs without a monthly fee so a bit more generous than CMC in that regard. Drawback is that it's US based.

Awesome Mysterybox, thanks alot I used your link to reinstall the SP2 and it automatically updated and installed the .net 2.0. Problem solved thanks again.

AMR - sweet, I'd be interested in the information you find out about GFT it seems to be a premium service, and a $US account would be useful for me trading futures & Indicies.
I think I'll stick with Latitudefx to cut my teeth in Forex for now though, and paper trade the Futures, Indicies, CFD's on Saxo until I get some consistency and perhaps a slightly larger trading account.

yes I used a version of DealBook (from GFT) a while back and it did have some pretty cool features including trailing stops and sms alerts
