progers, Most of what you suggest is deffinetly possible... the things such as specific times for entries and what not... very simple.. could EASILY have a strategy script that checks system time and does whatever you want on designated times... so that is VERY doable.. the bracket order...

gonz, 1. Yes the chart can handle raeltime. However the chart only updates on new bars and not in between bars. This is something I am working on changing. I will move the price label to the right side. 2. The entry signal has already been addressed and will now use symbosl such as arrows...

SteveH, No reason for me to get amibroker and build my strategies on top of there..... Maybe you have not read the whole thread, but this thread is about me turning my ALREADY mostly built platform into something that can be used by other people. My system is already complete as for as all my...

Still have not really received much feedback on the actual screenshots I posted? Could really use some opions on how to better the interface, unless you believe the interface already looks good in which case i would like to hear that as well.. thanks... BTW, will soon be adding support for...

frostfusion, makes me think of a razor for some reason..... frostbite, just has a very bad negative connotation in my opion... ... and yea there is always frostengine.... however I think I want to get away from the whole "frost" at the beging of the name thing.... Thanks for your...

Does anyone have any possible name suggestions for this tool? Frosty's stock bot just does not seem very creative for a name ;)

kohanz, I am writting this project in Java.

Here is a very tentative screenshot of some of the options you will see on the backtesting piece. To the left you see a list box with all of the tick data captured by the application that you can use for your backtests. You can select either one, or select multipe of those..... Then there are...

toe, Good point about the long bar representing entries. It is a bit confusing. I currently have support for lines, bars, and symbols. Symbols being what you are refering to as a pointer to mark entries. In the charts I provided I just happend to have it using bars, but replacing one line in...

I am looking at releasing the first functional betas in just a few weeks. As for as someone who has never programmed before, how to learn how to code strategies... I am not sure of any resources off the top of my head on how to do it, but corresponding with the first beta's I will write...

This indicator looks like the indicator found here: http://www.markettrak.com/safety.html

The second screenshot shows another chart, and shows the main application window displayed at the same time. That window is showing the output of the backtests, such as how much each trade is netting and such..... and what the running total for the day is. As you can see MA crossovers arnet very...

here is a screenshot of the charts. I have not put a lot of work into the charts, so they may not look that great..... This screenshot, is just to get some feedback on things to make the charting look better, and to also demonstrate how it is marking buys and sells during a backtest. In this...

Just wanted to give an update and let everyone know the code is progressing very well. At this rate I should have the first beta ready in another 2 to 3 weeks. Also, pretty soon I will start posting screenshots to try and get some ideas for possible improvements. I am currently working only...

trader herry, Thanks for the advice. I still believe even with a complety free system that I still have some liabilities that fall back on myself..... at the very least I need some sort of insurance..... My thoughts are that people would still want to use this tool because its a no risk...

Ursa, Thanks for your support of the project. One of the next steps I will be taking with this project is to set up a website to act as a common repository for all donated scripts. top_playa, Thanks for the advice. The way it is apearing is I will need to do 2 things to fully protect...

The code is looking very good and the scripting engine is integrating very nicely. I know many of you wanted this project to turn into an open source project... the more controll I am giving the scripts over the system, and by basically duplicating a lot of the core componets as scripts... its...

You will notice in the code the following: trade.Buy(price); trade.Sell(price); this trade, is what I call the trade manager... it handles all of the trading information, such as setting stop losses, covering shorts, taking profits, keeping track of active postions etc.... you can...

Here is an example of a very simple system, buys/sells on moving average crossovers..... This example is done using the beanshell scripting language which is probablly the most dificult of the scripting language for non programmers.. but even so, looking at this script I dont think its anymore...

The decision I made concerning the scripting language is that I will support several of them including: BeanShell-which is essentially java Jython-which is python I am also looking at a few very "basic" scripting language... No matter which scripting langauge you decide to write your...
