Having a good Systems strategy
There are many
things to think about when making a trade. The date and price to
enter it are the most basic. Most trading experts take that further
by planning exit conditions before entering the trade. Telechart
2005 and TCNET focus on finding these trading setups but don't help you
with when to enter the trade or close it out.
A
more complete approach to trading
TC-Companion can
help you to decide setup, entry, and exit components of a trade.
TC-Companion aids you in building, testing, and analyzing your plans,
revealing strengths and weaknesses in your strategy and allowing you make
more successful decisions.

About
TC-Companion for Microsoft Windows™
 Using the System Development Kit (SDK) provided by Worden Brothers
for Telechart 2000 and TCNET, TC-Companion (TCC) was written in Microsoft
Visual Basic for Window-based platforms. TCC allows users to write PCFs (as
created in Telechart 2005 or with additional TCC unique extension) to build
and test specific trading strategies using the historical trading data
provided by Telechart 2005. The results of the Backtest are calculated and
presented in either Excel or Comma Delimited (csv) format.
