    Possible to develop a supp/resist equities startegy

    You'll find most ideas that are tested don't work out when backtested on a portfolio level backtester. Happens all the times. There is a huge discretionary element in picking tops and bottoms that a basic 2 stdev system or Bollinger band system will never be able to catch. JMHO

    Why to short the Canadian Dollar

    Good points Poole, I agree completely. Manufacturing employs in my best guess, 5-7 million people in Canada. While mining employs something like 400,000. Their was a story yesterday that I read in either the Post (probably the post) or the Globe and mail saying 14 condo projects are...

    I've never had to spend more than 20-60 minutes on an optimization and that was while testing 5000 stocks at a time while using Amibroker.

    Questions about Amibroker

    Trading on Acid

    The furthest I got was reading Thus Spake Zarathustra on the purple stuff. I suggest you avoid it and try something simple like st. johns wort or shrooms or a nice cuban coffee.

    What do you think about what Jim Rogers has to say?

    It's funny because I am sitting here reading John Trains classic - "the new money masters" which was published in 1989. Jim Roger's interview starts on page 1. They were masters then, and they are masters now. The rest are master debaters.

    You need to be accredited high net worth investor to deal with CMC no? Most of their ads say that at the bottom- something like 250k in liquid assets. portfolio margining makes a hell of a lot more sense than CMC.
