Downloading and Installing OptimalTrader

OptimalTrader is built on Microsoft's .NET Framework. We also use Microsoft's ClickOnce method of installation. Using ClickOnce simplifies the installation and update process. When you install OptimalTrader, ClickOnce will make sure that any required software is installed.  And every time you run OptimalTrader, ClickOnce will automatically check for a newer version of OptimalTrader and will prompt you to update when one is available.

If you are a previous user of OptimalTrader version 1.6, you registration key will not work with the version 1.7 software and you must upgrade.

If you have trouble using this installation method, please make sure that you are using Internet Explorer browser to install the software. If this still does not allow you to install, then please contact support for an alternate installation method.
