Who offers best 3rd party Stock Trading Tools?

Like real time quotes, Nasdaq Level II, professional clean GUI layout, streaming quotes etc. I moved from TD Ameritrade to Questrade. I was happy with TD's tools, but Questrade does not have any valuable tools quite bad layout & very expensive also. The only one' they offer are in beta stage. So looking for some 3rd party tools I could use, if you know any that offer it for free that would be nice otherwise who offers the "best set of tools" for trading with reasonable prices.
I should have rephrased it, tools for Active Trader or Day Trader. Trying to look for 3rd party tools like Paid Yahoo finances etc or some other site.

is there any good stock trading tool for people having day jobs?

I would like to do stock trading, but it takes lot of time during the trading day. I was wondering if there is a good stock trading tool for people with a day job, like may be a sms message to a pda cell phone indicating stock tips and entry and exit points and allow to execute trading with a click of a button.

thanks,

Online trading is gaining popularity because of its efficiency and ease of use. If you are on the trading business, it is important to know the right tools of the trade. Doing trade at home should not pose any problem as long as you have the right hardware and software to assist you in your online trading. One should invest in a sound computer with suitable hardware specifications and software.

To get you started with online trading, here area the minimum requirements that your personal computer should have:

Hardware specification

A Pentium computer with a processor speed of 1 gigahertz (GHZ) or a Mac OS 9 is good enough. If you can afford one with a higher processor speed then so much the better. Random access memory (RAM) should be 1024 MB at a minimum. Your hard drive, where you would store all your files, should have 100 GB. Operating system should be Windows XP or similar software. Of course for connecting online you need to have a modem and a network card. For better viewing of web pages, a high-standard video card and a 19-inch monitor would work best.

Internet connection

The last thing you want to happen is to wait for several minutes before you can do online transactions like ordering, confirming orders or answering emails. You also need the Internet to get updates on trading news and the current market data trend. It would be quite frustrating to wait long for web pages to load and lose precious seconds. Online trading is in such a fast-paced world that you need to adapt with, else, you would be left behind. A cable or a broadband (DSL phone line) connection would be sufficient. In case there may be problems with your Internet service provider, you should always have your 56k modem ready as a dial-up connection for back up.

Software for online transactions

One could opt to use online order execution provided by internet-based discount brokers like Waterhouse Securities and E-trade. This kind of brokers may differ on how long they accept and review orders, confirm trades and execute them. Some of these brokers sometimes route customers to a third party or a similar broker for execution, which can be a cause of delay.

If you want faster transaction and can pay a slightly higher fee another alternative is to use an Electric Direct Access Trading also simply referred to as EDAT. It is an online system that would direct your customers to an online exchange through a dedicated phone and modem. The EDAT system provides direct communication with a specialist and ordering is directly done in the market, which results to an efficient and faster trade.

Other Software for Trading

There are several software that you can buy that can help you with online trading. These software offer real-time information on market index, stock quotes, market updates and news, price alerts and much more.
Investing on a good computer and the proper tools for trading is surely worth your money. But of course, what good are these things without an excellent trading skill. On top of these hardware and software, invest in valuable information and knowledge to help you succeed with online trading.

Candlestick charting is great for traders wanting an extra edge in their quest for profits - this is due to the way the candle bodies are drawn, that gives a better insight that is visual, and shows trader psychology.

More traders than ever are using candlestick charts due to the extra trading edge they can get with this form of charting - if you have not used them before, then this article is for you.

Candlestick charts are not new, and have been used for hundreds of years by Japanese traders to predict and act on market movements.

Candlestick charting giving greater insight into human psychology

In the 1700's, Homma, a Japanese trader in rice, noticed how the price of rice was influenced by human psychology as much as the supply and demand situation. Homma used candlestick charts to trade rice and amassed a huge fortune in the markets. In fact, it was rumored he never to have had a single losing trade!

Human psychology has never changed, and has remained constant over time - candlestick charting is therefore just as useful today, as it was hundreds of years ago.

The Re-emergence of Candlestick Charting

Steve Nison, book, "Japanese charting techniques," bought candlestick charting back into the public domain in the 1990s. Currency traders soon started using candlestick charting instead of bar charts for greater insight into market movements.

So why use Candlestick Charts?

1. They complement other Technical Tools

You can use candlestick charts as you would use the common bar chart, and you can combine them with traditional market indicators. Candlestick charts are a great way to spot opportunities, and then filter, and time trades with other indicators.

2. Spotting trend changes

Because of the way candlestick charts are viewed, they can give warnings of market reversals, far more visually than traditional bar charts.

If you look at candlestick charting, the human psychology of the move literally jumps out the page at you.

3. Straightforward to use

Candlestick charts use, the same open, high, low and close data that traditional bar charts use, and are easy to draw.

In addition, there are many packages like supercharts and tradestation that will draw them automatically for traders.

The different candle names are also easy to remember.

4. Define market momentums

The way the candlestick chart is drawn not only gives the direction of price, but also the momentum behind the move.

The candlestick chart graphically illustrates the relationship behind the open, high, low, and close by the body - and adds an extra visual edge, due to the way they are drawn.

The candlestick has a wide part, called the "real body." This real body represents the range between the open and close of that day's trading.

When filled in black, the real body means the close was lower than the open.

If the real body is empty, it means the opposite - the close was higher than the open.

Above and below the real body we see the "shadows." We see these as the wicks of the candle (which give them their name), and the shadows actually show the high and the low of the day's trading.

If the upper shadow on the filled-in body is short, it indicates that the open that day was closer to the high of the day. On the other hand, a short upper shadow on a white, or unfilled body shows the close was near the high.

A Visual Aid to Give You an Edge

Candlestick charts should be used rather than traditional bar charts because they give you an extra visual dimension.

Regardless, of whether you are a day trader, position trader, system trader or a trader who likes to make your own trades, there is really nothing to dislike about candlestick charts!

Easy and fun to use, and providing a greater insight into market moves, along with the ability to use in any type of trading, means if you aren
