Medved Trader is a fast, lightweight charting and trading platform that does not get in your way. It is built for speed and customization - real-time charts and watchlists, Level 2, alerts, and multi-monitor layouts - at a price that makes sense for active traders.
Medved Trader is a fast, lightweight charting and trading platform for Windows, built by traders for traders. It is broker-agnostic and highly customizable, with real-time streaming data, deep charting, and on-chart trading. Through Discount Trading, it connects to your futures account.
The platform keeps a light footprint while packing in hundreds of indicators, a full alert system, customizable scanning, and Level II monitoring. It suits active traders who want speed and control without a heavy, complicated interface.
Every chart type, hundreds of indicators, annotations, and drawing tools across multiple timeframes, with real-time candle and chart-pattern detection.
Place orders on the chart, see current orders and positions there, drag a pending order to a new price, and watch it execute.
A depth-of-market interface for precise order placement, with market, limit, stop, trailing stop, OCO, and bracket orders.
Real-time Level II data and Time and Sales for reading order flow at each price level.
Fully configurable alerts on single symbols, multi-symbol groups, portfolios, news, and trendlines on charts, delivered by pop-up and email.
Scan using any formula and any indicator, including real-time chart-pattern detection built into your scans.
Track portfolios in real time and use the Tiled display, which color-codes tiles by price action for a fast read.
Streaming and snapshot news from multiple sources shown right on your portfolios.
A simulated environment to practice and test strategies without risking capital.
Medved Trader's design goal is speed. It stays lightweight and responsive while still carrying hundreds of indicators, a full alert system, and customizable scanning.
For active traders who do not want to fight a heavy interface, that combination of speed and depth is the draw.
Charting is fully customizable, with all the chart types, indicators, annotations, and alerts active traders use, plus real-time candle-pattern detection you can fold into your scans.
You can trade from the chart directly: see your orders and positions on it, drag a pending order to a new price, and watch it fill.
The alert system is one of Medved Trader's strengths. Configure alerts on single symbols, groups, whole portfolios, news, or trendlines drawn on a chart, and receive them by pop-up or email.
Scanning is just as flexible. It is built on any formula and any indicator, with pattern detection running in real time so your scans react as the market moves.
For traders who read the tape, Medved Trader provides real-time Level II and Time and Sales. You can see resting orders at each price level and pair that with DOM trading for precise placement.
Combined with the on-chart order tools, it gives tape readers a tight loop between what they see and how they act.
