>>Does wealth-lab or TS7 support intraday, tick-by-tick back testing on a portfolio of symbols over a large date range?<< Wealth-Lab supports intraday, bar-by-bar (not tick-by-tick) testing on a portfolio of symbols over a large date range. I'm not exactly sure what you mean by tick-by-tick...

If you purchased WLD2.1 on or after November 2002 (when WLD3.0) was announced, then you will receive a free upgrade. Otherwise the upgrade cost is $100. WLD3.0 does handle tick level charts. Release will be this Summer.

Hi WD, I'm from Chicago ... had dinner with your brother a few weeks ago :) Would love to hook up some time to discuss Gann techniques.

Hi skiabox, Yes, Wealth-Lab supports developing Pairs Trading strategies.

I agree with what you say. With our Version 3.0 release coming up we hope that we're contributing to evolution in the right direction :) Dion Kurczek

There's a question of balance. Do you want to write your own code to support and load many different data formats? Do you want to write code to create indicators based on historical price data? Do you want to write low level routines to compress historical data from daily to weekly, 5 minute...

Oops, I meant to address that reply to ges, sorry :) >>Since it promises many new long awaited features, I was hoping it would be released sooner. << That's really the reason the development cycle is taking a bit longer than our V1 to V2 upgrade cycle. Many of the new features (including...

wally, When you perform your scans did you reduce the number of bars to load? The default is to load all available data. Reducing the amount of data to the minumim required greatly increases the speed of the scans.

Hi WDGann, We do plan to add Gann drawing tools in our Version 3.0 upgrade, it's currently under developed and scheduled for a Summer release. Thanks for the defense against Mr. Larson, he's certainly a savage critic of many softwares :) Dion Kurczek

Where's the volume?? Volume often gives cues that make it much easier to distinguish real charts versus random. Without volume my guess would be: Random Random Real Real Real Random Random Real Random Random

Wealth-Lab® members have submitted several "Turtle" based systems on our free backtesting web site. You can try them out on any US stock directly from the site. Use the Search feature below, and type "Turtle" in the Title Search field and you'll see a handful of results. I hope this helps :)...

[Do you need the developers version to do intraday analysis? There's a wealthlab group on Yahoo (groups.yahoo.com/group/Wealth-Lab/messages) that seems to have some activity.] Our Yahoo! Group is growing slowly, but most activity still takes place on our own forum...

Hi Chuck, Just curious, does ESignal backtesting allow for the following: 1) Backtest strategies that can open and manage multiple positions simultaneously? This means being able to possibly use different strategies in the same script and keep track of that at the position level. 2)...

I'm sure that I saw a TS ad not too long ago that stated that TS does use tick data (if available) to simulate trade execution realistically on a daily bar. The ad even showed 2 charts of the blown up daily bar, showing how the trade would have exited at a stop if prices moved in one pattern or...

Well, we may see some changes a few months from now. Rumor has it that Microsoft will be buying Yahoo in November of this year.

A key benefit of Wealth-Lab is the portfolio level testing capability, and the power to see the results of money management applied at the portfolio level in seconds. To get portfolio level testing in other tools can require add-ins costing thousands of dollars. Dion Kurczek Wealth-Lab...

trader99, I'm glad Wealth-Lab is working well for you (and the growing Wealth-Lab community currently at about 7000 members). When evaluating a mechanical system it's important to test on a variety of markets, and try various position sizing techniques. You can perform portfolio testing...

Be sure to check out Wealth-Lab Developer also, http://www.wealth-lab.com :cool:

Please consider adding Wealth-Lab Developer to your list. Although the product focuses mainly on trading system development and backtesting it does offer real-time trading system charts powered by ESignal or QCharts Feed. Let me know if you need any additional info. Thanks :)

Sorry about being so late to jump in here ... WLD can handle systems using multiple intraday time frames, as long as the longer time frame can be constructed from the shorter. For example, you could use a 15 minute MACD in a 1, 3 or 5 minute chart. However, the product doesn't yet support...
