Not directly. No. But it is possible to have TS communicate with your own program written with C#. There are many threads here and on the TS forum that talk about this.
Can't say that I blame you for that. In that case, perhaps an option is just to avoid TS altogether. TS gives brokerage plus data; but you can have both with other options. NinjaTrader works with many brokers (fewer now that they are in the broker business themselves) and data feeds, and you have C#. SierraChart seems to have a great many brokers and data feeds, and you use C++. (I have not used Sierra, but its reputation is good, and I may give them a try.)
I have used TS, and it has many good points, but the language is limiting.
Is there a compelling reason to stay with TradeStation for you?
MultiCharts.net is similar in many respects to TradeStation but allows the programmer to use the Visual Studio set of languages, including C#. You should check it out (I don't use it - I use regular MultiCharts)
