Xtick is a basic charting program with simple, yet functional features. It contains almost all of the basic indicators you will need and offers unique items such as Xpaint, which allows you to color candlesticks if certain criteria is met. While it lacks many broker feeds, it does allow you to demo with a standard feed and also lets users move back charts and advance forward one candle at a time. This is particularly useful for testing technical trading systems. Notable users of Xtick include Rob Booker, Forex Pacific and a host of other stock brokers. It's most notable datafeed is provided by FXCM.

I love using xtick. Not only is it easy to use, it makes the charts appealing to look at, unlike other software that are just play ugly and difficult to use. Also, the xpaint feature is pretty useful in backtesting as it helps pinpoint triggered signals.
