⚡️ The New Designer: The Next Level in Algorithmic Trading ⚡️

Algorithmic trading professionals and enthusiasts have reason to celebrate: a new version of Designer has been released, packed with improvements and innovations!

We have completely redesigned Designer. It took a long time, but it was worth it. The new version offers a wide range of new features, performance improvements, and entirely new capabilities!

For those receiving our newsletter for the first time: what is Designer? It is a unique application that lets you create trading robots without programming. Absolutely! Everything is built using block diagrams—a concept even children learn at school.

Advantages

Let's look at how Designer differs from other platforms:

1. Designer supports both block-based mode and C# code. Why not have both? The application is convenient for people who cannot program at all as well as for those with basic coding skills.
2. Our blocks are not merely a fixed, limited set. First, they are elementary building blocks, making them flexible enough for many different use cases—they are not tailored to specific strategies. Second, you can create your own blocks directly in Designer. You can build blocks from code or even from other blocks!
3. Designer can download the required historical data itself; the feature is built in. For those who want even greater convenience, there is Hydra: Hydra downloads the data, and Designer uses it.
4. Designer is FREE ❤️💥. Yes, that's right! We have a special plan for private traders that lets you use one connector free of charge for live trading—not merely demo trading. Choose any connector: stock exchange, crypto exchange, or forex. This is a lifetime benefit. You do not need to enter card details or complete any verification. Simply register on our website, install Installer—the entry point to our platform (Assign, install and work with StockSharp Installer.)—and select the connector that suits you.
5. You do not need to join referral programs or switch brokerage plans. Your existing plan with your current broker is already compatible with our applications.
6. You can create your own connectors. We do not hide the documentation or charge for it! All documentation is available online. In addition, an example connector for the Bitstamp exchange is available in our GitHub repository. We welcome everyone who wants to create connectors, and we are ready to help.
7. Our core is completely open source. The algorithms, backtesters, data storage format, and more are all open rather than closed!

Let's Communicate

We have long used an automated bug-reporting system. When you encounter an error, we learn about it within a minute. This unobtrusive channel between your application and our error-analysis system operates 24/7. Do not worry: we send only system error information. Your confidential data remains on your computer and goes nowhere else.

But what if you want to talk to us? Let's communicate! We are opening our channel, where all users have direct access to our managers and developers in a live chat. It is already available here!

What's Next

In future news, we will gradually tell you about all the innovations. This message is for everyone interested in what is new. Stay tuned—it will be very interesting!

Do not forget all the ways to keep in touch: our email newsletters, our YouTube channel—which will soon be filled with new videos about our approach to algorithmic trading—and our social media groups. Subscribe and leave a like! We truly appreciate your support.

New Horizons Ahead

This update opens new horizons in algorithmic trading. With Designer, every user can become an algorithmic trader. Its intuitive block-based logic does not require programming knowledge, so everyone can start creating their own trading strategies today.
