How to make a Free Automated Trading System Video Tutorial

Thanks to Boogster and some other great software, I've created my own Automated Trading System (ATS). Boogster made a very detailed post on how to make an ATS and I decided to make a tutorial video following his guide. If you have a broker that accepts API connections like Interactive Brokers, then you can make this Automated Trading System for Free. Here are the downloads you'll need-

Medved Quotetracker

- Free Charting Software

Bracket Trader

- Free Trade Management Software

Mailenable

- Free Mail Server

ActiveState Perl

- Free Scripting Software

HPT's updated Boogsters ATS Perl Script

- An email client that checks your email and enters a trade into Bracket Trader when a new alert is found in QuoteTracker

Interactive Broker’s TWS Demo

- A Free Demo account with Interactive Brokers

In the following Video Tutorial I will be going over everything you need to know from the first step of downloading the software all the way to having the ATS make its first live trade.

I would like to give a special thanks to Boogster for his work on the ATS perl script, Jerry for his awesome charting software QuoteTracker, and larry for his excellent Trade Management software Bracket Trader.
