    Seeking Hong Kong holiday calendar

    I don't trade Hong Kong stocks, but one provider I do use (for US stocks and futures) has the Hang Seng index in its world indexes and cash folder which is bundled with their other data offerings. They are called Premium Data. Basically look for the tell-tale signs of repeated closes and...

    Seeking Hong Kong holiday calendar

    Why not grab historical data on the Hang Seng index from a reputable data vendor. They won't provide data on holidays. Crap data vendors will have holidays throughout as padded data.

    Re Moonist: Next time you need to be like "CSI" and do the forenzics and figure out "why" and ask them why this happened. It could simply be a cancelled trade causing this and that is the way they deliver their data. You might not receive the cancelled trade until hours later. The only way...

    Check your back-test data

    It really does sound like a basic timezone mistake. Wait until you try and live in countries like Singapore and try and track the different daylight savings changes worldwide - you invariable screw it up. A simple look at the chart pattern on a longer timeframe from two different vendors...

    So what does the training and certification cost? Where can you do it? Can it be done remotely? Do they offer webinars? What materials are supplied in the course? What does a re-test for certificate cost? and lastly - is it any good?

    LMAX really no last look ?

    So let me get this straight. You don't want to ask LMAX but you do want to ask ET users what is going on with your cancelled trade? Maybe it was a technical error that really needs fixing. Maybe they do requote on CFDs. If you really want to trade a German futures contract, why are you not...

    LMAX really no last look ?

    Seems a bit harsh. I would have thought you have enough evidence to ask them a simple question why you were not filed at your requested price.

    I don't understand - why can't you simply find your own "top gainers/losers" for the day rather than relying on some other report?

    Top Gainers Losers data for backtest ?

    Amibroker, Rightedge, Wealthlab come to mind since they all let you do deep programming. You might be able to do a ranking system in Multicharts too. You might also be able to do it in traders studio or trading blox but I'm not familiar with them. The alternative is to write your own using...
