The 2015 Review

Updated for 2015, it is an exciting year for stock market investors with a greater wealth of powerful stock analysis solutions than ever before.  We reviewed over 25 different vendors, the top 10 this year is all good quality.

Movers and Shakers for 2015

Congratulations go to MetaStock and TradeStation who tie for the number 1 position this year.

MetaStock has invested heavily with the highly acclaimed MetaStock XIV, the edge they have is global market access, excellent news services, expert advisors and system development, with a huge range of indicators and powerful scanning.  The edge this year is the introduction of forecasting and improved backtesting, these are serious moves by the MetaStock Team.

TradeStation has a huge feature set rivaling MetaStock in most areas, but it truly excels with the broker integration.  Trading from charts and live P&L portfolio management.

New Entrants to the Top 10 for 2015

We have 3 new entries in the Top 10 this year.

Straight in at number 5 is QuantShare with a low overall cost and excellent feature set, the sharing aspect of the tool enables thousands of users to directly and free of charge share systems, watchlists and tools.  Improvements in the user interface, data downloading experience could take it further in future years.

New entrant Market Analyst is a more expensive solution but packs a serious punch with unique Gann features, touch screen enablement, excellent sector mapping and even astrological charts.  The developers have a seriously slick easy to use interface that is well thought out.

ChartSmart  new at at position 9 has a good feature set but struggles to compete with the best on price and market access.

Special Note on the Ratings

What you need in a software package is essentially down to how you trade and what information you use in your trading style.

If you are a day trader you may need real-time news, real-time scanning and level II streaming quotes.  If you are a long term fundamental investor you may be looking for strong economic and company fundamentals scanning.  If you want to develop your own automated trading systems that are back tested and place trades automatically you will be looking for this functionality.

Rating these packages side by side can give the impression that one package is better than all the rest, but the key is what software suits you and your trading style the best.  Please read the Recommended For section in the reviews to understand the unique offerings that each vendor provides.  No two software packages are identical, each provides a unique price and feature point.

Also Liberated Stock Trader has forged relationships with many of the Top 10 vendors to allow you to get a discount or bonus if you decide to buy one of these great packages, simply click on the logos to go to the vendor that best suits your needs.
