Get a Camaro, man. Beef up the suspension and you have a car that corners with the Lambourghinis. You can rent a mini van for moving!! The kids will hate the back seats in the Camaro though. That will give you a chance to tell them how you walked to school uphill both ways in the snow.

I hope somebody developes a plug-in for Excel so that history and realtime updates can be gotten just by pasting a list of issues into a column. This can be done with quote.com's qlink and some VBA programming but it is a hassle to try to work with their data and servers.

Max401 (no relation) just doesn't seem to be in the mood to take shit from people.

Qcharts' daily data, at least for stocks, is straight from the exchanges and not scrubbed, the highs and lows may be innacurate. They do scrub their intraday data, not always though, so you can pull up a daily chart and a 390 minute chart for example and see differences. I have pulled up...

I wonder if anybody is using this and could comment?

There may be a simpler way but I have built data in the arrays in TS2k from shorter bar interval data than I want to trade with and then generated signals during the bar I want to trade on. Isn't there a "this bar on close" situation? Check the EZLanguage manual if you have not already, you...

Convert them from percentages to multipliers of your account, the 10% becomes a 1.1 and the 6% loss becomes .94. Then you can multiply them together to get the overall effect on your account of the two trades.

I just saw so many posts on the forums regarding backtesting problems with more than one data in a chart that I never went that way after I saw a couple myself. It was about 3 years back, I don't remember the details but I do remember the frustration. I assumed that TS just never debugged that...

And then when you use data 2 in a chart in Tradestation to reference the other timeframe 1) it can't be tick data 2) so many weird bugs will pop up you will give up eventually. I had to resort to building my own longer timeframe data in the arrays with tradestation and then testing on that.

That reminds me, the animal rights-vegan-anti globalization- pro piercing, acid, free love and tattoos convention is coming up

A dog's philosophy: If you can't eat it or fuck it then piss on it.

Some traders use different MACD settings for entries and exits, shorts and longs.

Could you elaborate? I just switched from TS2000 to Esignal. Esignal looks much better in many regards. It has global variables, a formula wizard, good data is included, and the EFS language seems well documented and very easy to use.

The yahoo group Trading_systems is all about math oriented stuff and arbitrage, or least the moderator is. You might post your question there and get some more light on your dilemma.

Looking forward to the journal.

Anything to keep me out of the chat area will be beneficial!!

I think the writers for the Phil Hendrie show are trying out new material on ET recently.

I looked up perjorative, it's not in the dictionary.

This has to be the about the third incarnation of this guy. Is it Phil Hendrie trying out new material?

Try working it in with a daytime job sometime!! I have a whole bunch of schemes for trading spread over all sorts of bar intervals, trouble is I have to get one working well enough to replace the job. There is little doubt in my mind that being willing, even eager to adapt is a big thing.
