Hi,

I'm a Securities Trader & i use the internet all the time.
Can somebody pls. advise if it's possible to install most (or all) trading software on an Mac OS X O/S or will i need to switch to Windows O/S ?

I want to take advantage of the superior MacOS X O/S.

Thanks - Dhimit

Trading software? Seeing as you're in the business, you probably know the names. Insert into Google and find the manufacturers site. Then check their compatibility.

Just google your apps, see if they have Mac versions.

I use TDAmeritrade streaming web based software with no issues.

Hi Mindwaves,

Pls. elaborate on TDAmeritrade streaming web based software. How does it work ?
Are u saying that if i install TD*** on Macbook, i can install any trading software without having to install Windows ?

[Chuckit]

No, he's saying he uses TD Ameritrade's Web-based trading software on a Mac. It won't allow you to install anything else on your Mac; it's just software you can use.

I am sure you know TDAmeritrade is a discount online brokerage firm. If you have an account with them, they have streaming web software (java based, nothing needs to be installed), then you can use that.

What is the name of the software which you use?
