You could automate the procedure using qcollector which is inexpensive. (You can search for the vendor using google). You can simply provide qcollector with the list of your stocks and it will download them one after the other. quote.com provides time and sales data. So isn't that the tick...

You should check out post here and the associated thread: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=333036#post333036 Also take a look at quote.com's Livecharts, it may do what you want at minimal cost. Richard

Bob111, You might have missed my previous question concerning your system: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=330293#post330293 Richard

I'm surprised to see that no one has yet mentioned quote.com. They appear to me to have the most extensive intra-day and daily historical data. For example, I recently download intraday data for the SP (SP500 futures contract) from all the way back from Dec. 1997. I think if you check other...

fortuna, What are the advantages trading the CAC vis a vis the ES or NQ? What are the trading hours expressed in EST? Richard

Today, it appears that ADX didn't get above 30 until after 12:30 CST. A little time later a divergence appeared which would have allowed a long entry on the open of the 13:30 CST bar at a SP price of 1,919.20. The Keltner band width at the time was around 6.4. The exit was at the 14:45 CST bar...

abhay, The results are looking good. "The values have changed" In order to confirm your results would you mind telling us exactly what your parameters are? "I also first thought of all abnormal situations that can happen and then built a logic to handle those situations also." Also...

Firstly, congratulations on your success. Some time ago I had come to the conclusion that being able to consistently make money on options was highly unlikely for two reasons: 1) the wide bid-ask spread immediately puts you in the red after getting into a position. 2) most equity options...

It's unanimous, we're all looking forward to it. Richard

dbphoenix, Thanks for your input. It made perfect sense. Richard

MarkB, I believe most people reading this thread (and this bulletin board, for that matter) do so to see if there is some information they can use in their own trading. Specifically, for this thread, can no_PM's method be used by others as effectively? If the method is mechanical then the...

OK, I've heard this many times and I still don't understand it. Let me explain why. For someone like myself who is still trying to find my way in this business, it's a question of what do I do in this "process" called trading where I buy and sell at certain times. So it's really a trading method...

no_PM, For the benefit of fully understanding how to trade the system and also since I would like to perform a backtest using Wealth-Lab (I'm still working on getting a divergence recognition function working), I really can't say I understand your first too points above. And more specifically...

no_PM, Where do you see the differences are in the code as compared to how you trade the system? It appears to me that your system should be able to be accurately described in code. Richard

Was there a sell signal just a minute ago? Looked like it on the e-mini. Richard

OffShoreTrader, Thanks for posting the code. It looks reasonable (but I'm no TS expert). One small thing, no_PM trades the method until 2:30 PM CST, I don't know what time zone your 1100 represents. Richard

OffShoreTrader, If you programmed this in Tradestation, would you mind posting the code (or PMing it to me). Thanks, Richard

no_PM, As they say in Japan, "Otsukaresama deshita", which is ritualistic saying to someone who has completed a job. It literally means: "You must be tired". No doubt appropriate for this trade. Richard

Let's hope your PC troubles are behind you. Good to see you back. (Frankly we were all a little lost without you :) ). Richard

MarkB, A couple of bars later the price did dip down to a low of 982.25 on the ES (it looks like it just did it again at 12:21 EST). Maybe that was a good opportunity to get in. no_PM, what's your counsel on this? Richard
