Bluegar, there's a difference between a datafeed like eSignal and a broker feed. Broker feeds don't provide backfill. If you want back data, you should subscribe to eSignal or another feed. You can use Ensign with IB without a data feed (many do) as Ensign provides backfill using free...

Why do you think the problem is Ensign? Which datafeed are you using? I use eSignal and don't have problems with Ensign and the eSignal feed.

That's tough to do in a backtest because what you are trying to do is rank order the universe of stocks on each bar. A simpler approach might be to specify the SPY as an external data series and then use that as a filter. What you could do then for each bar is say ignore this symbol for long...

portfolio backtesting is backtesting on a group of symbols. Simple group backtesting just does an individual backtest on each symbol in the group serially i.e. performs the backtest on every bar for symbol 1, then for symbol 2, etc. This is not portfolio backtesting as each symbol's account is...

yes, lease-only unfortunately. They haven't announced pricing yet for R/T version but it will likely be at least $100/month. Pricey, but it's a nice product well worth exploring.

Take a look at www.seertrading.com This is a relatively new product that currently has only an EOD version, but a R/T version with automation is due next year. It has TRUE portfolio level analysis - multiple systems sharing one account. On a portfolio backtest, it tests each symbol for a...

nice choices johnny. Im guessing you're English. Haven't heard Really Free for ages, nor John Cooper Clarke. Great Fall song too - one of my favourite bands of all time.

The software looks like a straight copy of Bill williams' stuff in the books Trading Chaos and New Trading Dimensions. The basis is 3 displaced moving averages with a couple of other momentum indicators. There is absolutely no need to buy this software when the indicators are in every...
