Hexgo
The Hexgo NinjaTrader package is the most complete of the index systems we have looked at: four contracts rather than one, position sizing fixed in advance at 1% with stops, and setup assistance included rather than sold as an add-on. Like every competitor's, the headline price is the software only — the breakdown below shows what it comes to once the platform is included.
Full Hexgo review →TrendSpider
The broadest of the platforms here and the only one where charting, backtesting and the bots are the same subscription, which is why the all-in figure stays close to the headline. It suits a trader who wants to build and run their own systems across several markets. What it does not do is hand you a strategy: you bring the edge, TrendSpider runs it.
