Seeking Alpha Analyst Since 2013

My name is Craig, I have been trading the markets independently for about 5 years now. Before that I worked at a wire house where we cleared for some funds, I ran a few businesses, a printing company, auto leasing and some others. I trade mostly technicals but do consider fundamentals. I will be posting some of my trades so you can see how I trade. Thanks

One of the most important tools for a trader is their trading software. If you skimp out on this, its like a carpenter choosing a weak hammer to build a house. I have used pretty much every charting software under the sun and Esignal takes the cake. It is clean, simple to adjust and get the way you need it fast without many steps. Their support is timely and efficient. I also like their studies section, I have been creating my own list of parameters and adding it in there for easy scanning. Overall, it is not the cheapest especially if you want to add in other sectors and instruments, but you get what you pay for and if you are looking to make money from trading then spend some on the right tools. Cheers!
