DAS Trader Pro vs TOS

Recommended Posts

Sorry for the new guy question...I've been paper trading in TOS for a little while.  As a new member, I have short term access to DAS Trader Pro.  I have a couple of questions.

  1.   Does DAS Trader Pro have a simulator/paper trade function?
  2.   If so, is it worth it to move to DAS Trader Pro and connect it to my TD Ameritrade accounts for future trading?
  3.   If you have used both platforms, why would you choose DAS Trader Pro over TOS?  (I've been using TOS for a little while and I'm pretty comfortable in the application, so nervous about changing).
  4.   Any other pointers or questions I didn't think about that you can think of, please feel free to share....I'm open to anything as I work towards my goal of becoming a full time trader.

Thanks in advance!!

Hello Chris,

  1. Yes, DAS Trader Pro subscription (IB, TD, CMEG or other brokers) comes with a training account. If you want to practice out of market hours, you can add the replay package for additional $15.00 (Level 1 only)
  2. It is worth to move to DAS Trader Pro if you day trade, customized hotkeys/scripts is not available in TOS (some hot keys available in TOS) like DAS
  3. The functionality and speed of DAS is needed for day trade, it is true that many day traders use TOS.

Best of luck.
