i would really be interested in your project with the following: 1)place an order at an exact time to be specified 2)allow that order to be good up to a certain time. for example, at 8am i tell the automation program to enter a buy at the bid at 930am and the order will be good until the...

it was a rainy day in april, i was only trading the big s&p. i was short and was short 10 cars with enough profit that i moved my stops to where i entered. I thought all was fine for the day. I was on a cruise ship enjoying my hotdog and diet coke then a call. greenspan had made a surprize cut...

ON tradestation i use 600 days back from today and optimize that. i assume that is trading days. i do write in easy language. so after i optimize i look at the results especially the return on highest drawdown. when i consolidate all 10 systems into rina i get the combined report and again...
