re: TradeStation

TradeStation does not provide direct financial support or sponsorship to the group itself, but on the TradeStation support forums (accessible to paid TradeStation pltform subscribers) there is a forum thread about WTSUG, which lists the group’s upcoming meetings and other announcements.

Over the past several years, attendance at the WTSUG group has consisted roughly 50% of traders who principally use the TradeStation platform and 50% who principally use other software. Why do so many non-TradeStation users attend WTSUG regularly – a group with TradeStation in its name? It is because the concepts discussed are often topics of interest to the traders/members and TradeStation makes a great common point of reference (many people have used TradeStation in the past – even if they don’t use it currently – so it’s easy to relate to in discussions of trading ideas and concepts that could probably be implemented in many platforms). And, a big reason many long-time members attend regularly is to meet up with long-time friends and fellow traders in person, to discuss recent events and issues, and to learn from the very significant experience and expertise represented among the group’s diverse membership.
