I have never used TradingView so I can't comment on it. I think that it's fine running Think or Swim. If you need to run Active Trader Pro, then it's better on a Windows PC, even one that's a couple of years old. It's moderately easier to have a two computer setup in a fixed location (home or office), but it's a nuisance if you need to travel a lot. If you can only have one system, then Active Trader Pro is usable but get an extra 8 GB of RAM compared to a Windows system. I'm currently running the Active Trader Pro Beta which runs fine on Apple Silicon but it's quite some ways before it has all of the functionality of Active Trader Pro and they have bugs to work out.
Hi Michael, do you think the new Mac Mini with the M4 chip and 16 GB of RAM can efficiently run Thinkorswim, Active Trader, and TradingView?
