TITAN X is TradeStation's next-generation flagship desktop platform, built for multi-asset institutional trading with full Windows and macOS parity. It executes equities, options, futures, and futures options from persistent, configurable workspaces, with symbol-linking that keeps charts, options chains, and watchlists in sync. Multi-monitor support, detachable panels, and per-desk layouts let professional trading desks match their setup to their strategy, while leg-level options chains and a multi-leg order ticket handle complex trades at sub-second speed, backed by direct market access and TradeStation's self-clearing infrastructure.
Institutional trading tools built around your workflow
TradeStation’s tools are designed to support the entire workflow of institutional desks, ensuring seamless integration and efficiency.
One platform suite for every institutional desk
TradeStation's institutional trading tool suite is built for the way institutional teams operate, where speed, customization, and cross-asset visibility aren't optional but foundational to how the desk runs. Every product is designed to work as part of a connected workflow rather than as a standalone tool, so trading, monitoring, and execution stay in sync across asset classes and devices.
Desktop
TradeStation Desktop, established in 1991, is our firm's powerhouse for strategy development, backtesting, automation, and real-time market surveillance. For institutional desks running systematic or hybrid strategies, it remains the environment where EasyLanguage®, RadarScreen®, and OptionStation Pro® operate at full depth.
Traders can test a strategy's profitability and risk against historical data, then refine it across multiple symbols and strategies. Once a strategy passes validation, it deploys directly to live or simulated trading through automated trading systems, with live results tracked in the Strategy Performance monitor.
Mobile Apps
TradeStation Mobile puts execution in your hands from anywhere, bringing the full trading experience to iOS and Android: advanced charting, native order entry, customizable watchlists, as well as price and volume alerts. Watchlists and alerts sync automatically across our tools, so portfolio managers can monitor positions and authorize trades on the move, with your firm's 2FA keeping access secure. Toggle between live and paper trading to test new ideas on the go.
FuturesPlus
FuturesPlus is TradeStation's dedicated platform for complex, multi-leg options-on-futures strategies. It offers one-click entry to U.S. futures exchanges, real-time streaming data, and personalized watchlists. For strategy construction, you get pre-built templates and an options chain scanner that builds spreads directly by expiry, plus RFQ tools that flag opportunities in your criteria.
For pricing and risk, traders can generate theoretical values from an autofit volatility curve or apply their own, with first- and second-order Greeks shown alongside each price. Backed by TradeStation's self-clearing FCM infrastructure, FuturesPlus gives institutional desks one workflow from analysis to execution, with dedicated support and rapid escalation.
Technical support built for institutional demands
TradeStation's institutional support infrastructure is built to resolve integration, execution, and platform issues at the speed your operations require — not through a general queue, but through direct access to the specialists who built and maintain the systems you're running on. Every institutional account is assigned a named relationship manager through our Concierge service team, with direct escalation paths to API specialists, platform engineers, and senior leadership who understand your specific FIX/REST configuration, connectivity architecture, and trading workflows.
