If ever I will have the courage to trade stocks one day then I would need to know the basics on Automated Stock Trading.  I assume that people who are into stocks know about this software and how helpful it could be. Just imagine if it is not automated, everything is prone to error and I am sure that you will not even trust your trust broker.  

Next thing we know we have robots to do the stocks for us.  I am sure people are thinking about it now.  Anything to make it easier for us.  That is what technology is for.
