    But what about copper ?

    My short bet would be a bet on a new crisis that will weaken global economies....or the fed pulling the plug on QE3. I think this is likely...but the timing baffles me. Could be 3 more months down the road.

    FXI and March copper tracking together today....nearing the magical $3.80 level.

    Looking for a Developer/Programmer to create a program for mutual use.

    I went thru this with a wanna-be systematic trader. He had this crazy strategy of trading gap-openings. No platforms could easily do it. Then his exit rules were so convoluted....it was crazy. And then he kept changing them. The big killer was: he had no backtested results. I think he...

    Backtesting: Excel VS Wealthlab for intraday strategies

    Exactly. The "Holy Grail" is quite elusive in the financial markets. The best of the best traders have keen intuition and insight...and don't really need software. Read the story on Michael Farmer of Red Kite Metals fame. No software in the world could have accomplished what he had done. He...

    But what about copper ?

    There's absolutely no recent news about Farmer or Red Kite Metals !!! I'll bet you he is long and trying to stay under the radar.

    But what about copper ?

    Hmmm...maybe not. FXI down over 1% percent today....but March copper barely moving down. Incredible. Who's holding up the copper market ? Is Michael Farmer in there long I wonder ?

    But what about copper ?

    I've figured it out....re: what's holding the copper market up: FXI. Look at that proxy for Chinese economic growth. It's been very strong recently. Over 38 thousand March contracts trading today...WOWZER. This is a "gentlemen, place your bets" situation. Could break either way.

    But what about copper ?

    http://www.marketwatch.com/story/copper-miners-to-nouveaux-bulls-risk-off-2013-02-04?dist=beforebell Very interesting article. This was a big move, but the metal itself did not follow. Is this a pre-cursor to weakness (finally) in the red metal ?

    I would do it if I had a hosted presence to place the pictures. Verizon stopped giving out giving out web space years ago.

    which backtesting platform i can trust

    Tradelink looks pretty good. However, remember that with open source software getting bug fixes and enhancements could be problematic. The Multicharts product is well-supported and I doubt seriously they would steal your strategies.
