Tempting...what spots in Tampa are you hitting?

I was a skate rat in the late 80's. Some of my friends in their mid 40's are still going strong. A friend of mine suggested I get back into it. I was like F no! In addition to being a software engineer, I am a semi-pro drummer. A broken arm could be a career killer! I stick to reminiscing...

Looks like a library has already been written (Open source) http://gaul.sourceforge.net/ fan27

50 bucks says that dude driving the truck will have a nice IRS audit coming soon. :p fan27

Sounds familiar :)

cool. thanks for posting that! fan27

What is the best way to test a portfolio of strategies with Amibroker? I found this post which hints at some techniques: http://www.inditraders.com/amibroker/8649-amibroker-backtesting.html thanks fan27

Thanks for taking the time to post that. Regarding #4, you essentially moved part 2 of the two parts to the machine (which is having the app determine which combination is best rather than having to manually look at the results of each combination yourself). What still has to be done with your...

I looked at both of the packages you mentioned and came to the same conclusion (better off building my own). I was however able to find this site and it looks like they have some interesting libraries: http://www.modulusfe.com/products/trading-system-developer-components/

yeah...that is an option. The PHP code (for trade analysis) is something I just threw together quickly. It is not very robust in terms of all the result stats you would want (max draw down, avg draw down length, etc). Ideally I would find a library that had all of the bells and whistles. fan27

I must admit, I had to look up those terms. Of the three, "Genetics" (or a simplified version of it) was how I planned on tackling the problem. I came across this page while researching those terms and it looks pretty cool...

The following are problems I have already solved with my tool that other tools I have looked at can't do (if you know of a tool that can do these things, please let me know). 1. Conditional statement with multiple time frames: i.e. DailyClose < LowerBollingerBand and MonthlyClose one month...

I am currently using a web app I built for back testing EOD/Weekly/Monthly data. I am using http://pecl.php.net/package/trader/0.3.0 to help with the TA and I am satisfied with the front end of the web app through to finding signals based on strategies I test. Currently, the code that analyzes...

TradingBlox looks interesting. The others mentioned have some cool features, but like most software packages you are going to hit a wall where you want to do something but can't. I have been using a web based app I wrote myself that utilizes TA-LIB wrapped in PHP. I have been considering to...

Being a recent father (I have an 11 month old), I cannot fathom the mind set where you leave small children home alone in a house. Clearly the mother of the children was distraught as I assume that was her sobbing in the beginning of the clip. Certainly does not excuse her recklessness. But...

Thanks for the responses thus far. Another thing I would like to be able to do is test different combinations of conditions programmatically. For example, say I have condition 1,2,3,4. I don't want to have to go in and manually run a test for each different combination. I would rather run...

I am looking for a back testing platform primarily for EOD data. I have some very specific requirements. I write software so I am not adverse to writing my own, but I do not want to reinvent the wheel. My .NET skills are strong and I have not written C/C++ in quite awhile, so I would prefer...

I am co-owner of a web based stock back testing tool. Myself and the other two co-owners are looking for some help with product development. I am the only trader out of the three which is why I am looking for software developers who have trading experience, can help determine product features...

Nice work Cassie! This thread has the best "signal/noise ratio" on all of ET!! fan27
