    priceactionlab questions

    No problem. Did you finally tried the program with the intraday data? I had it do a few runs last week and the results weren't that bad. I didn't run and out of sample tests though.

    priceactionlab questions

    When I first tested the demo I tried 5min bars and it produced many patterns. The main issue is whether these patterns are robust enough for using them in real trading. The good thing about this program is that you can always test these patterns on unseen data using a fucntion called Test...

    priceactionlab questions

    TS you mean. I've seen nowhere in the PAL manual mentioning how to get data from TWS. What is your post about anyway? I cannot figure out what you want to do.

    starting trading

    This is 1970s - 1980s style trading. The world has changed a lot since. Nowadays trading means algos at work. Whoever follows this style of trading (looking at screens real-time and analyzing formations) will end up a with poor vision, psychosis, hemorrhoids, ulcer and other potentially harmful...

    Can a mechanical trading sys eliminate stress?

    Learn to trade one stock first using your method. Jumping to many stocks at once will only multiply your problems, your cost and speed up your eventual failure due to a massive drawdown with your name on it. Friendly advice.

    Close vs. Adjusted Close

    Back to school kut2k2. Let's do some arithmetic. There is this new stock IPO and my system will buy if Price > MA(3). The stock starts trading and it registers the following price series in the next 3 days: 4, 5, 4 obviously, MA(3) = 4.3333 > 4 and there is no buy signal at the close...

    Futures Trading and Initial Capital

    I disagree. On the contrary, shares can plunge 50% overnight easily. This is hardly an issue in futures. I think you are doing it the wrong way. The only problem with futures is limits. Some have and some don't.

    Futures Trading and Initial Capital

    Too vague of a question. What is your risk percent? Will you set a stop-loss? What kind of a drawdown do you expect? 40K may not be nearly enough depending on what you will be doing. I'm trying to locate a paper for you that gives details. I know of a book but it is out of print.

    Take a look at the Amibroker AFL archives for something like that and just change the code to run in NT.

    I'm at step 0 regarding systems.

    IMO this is a wired use of the data-mining term. Usually, data-mining invloves backtesting a number of rules on the same data sample and selecting the best performing ones based on some criterion. Maybe I missed something. Could you clarify a little your methodology?

    You guys pls stop talking about a bull run in SPX. Each time you do that the market tips over. This is the results of those data mining robots scanning forum posts and twitter for taking the opposite side of the crowds. :)
