    I'm at step 0 regarding systems.

    This is a serious accusation against Tradestation Technologies. You may be right given the history of the products, for example TS2000 had a defective backtester but I don’t know, you may be also wrong. But this is too serious. Are you telling us that TS fails to identify patterns people are...

    I'm at step 0 regarding systems.

    I thought he is more interested in developing a platform that integrates system backtesting and system discovery based on data mining. Can TradersStudio do that?

    Price Action Lab Question

    The objective is productivity gains at this point. I have done this manually already for three tickers and it took some hard work to get the final system. It surely works. The software development cost is 12K. I have spent 10K more for hardware. The full cost is fully financed with profits...

    Programmer monthly rate (Java multithreading IB Platform)

    Last week I hired an Indian programmer to develop an interface between Price Action Lab and NT. It is really nothing way too complicated but it involves integrating some GP code I already have that will take the Price Action Lab output, generate a system based on the patterns, write the code of...

    Price Action Lab Question

    You can use it with may programs. NinjaTrader comes to mind right away. You can also use it with TS. There are also some programs that will read such a file and then use genetic programming to develop a system. I see PAL as a pattern generator in that sense. More work is required to get a full...

    Systematic traders! Hear ye! Hear ye!

    This thread is very interesting. Having said that, I think I will agree with Bill. It doesn't make sense to consider too extreme possibilities. I think Bill is saying that some valyes of DD may be too extreme for a particular system. For example, if I have a system that adjusts position...

    Systematic traders! Hear ye! Hear ye!

    IMO Bill is correct. I also find your attitude very irritating. I think he asked you several times a specific question, namely the procedure you follow to get results. Each and every reply of yours is about not understanding it, but what exactly doesn’t he understand? Do you want him to take...

    Slippage for trend following system

    Since 2006 on 5-minute bars and only 184 trades sounds like over-fitting to me.

    Systematic traders! Hear ye! Hear ye!

    The assumption in MC simulations is that when the null hypothesis is true, all of the n! possible permutations, including the original trade sequence, have an equal chance of appearing. This assumption is violated for many different types of trading systems including those that rely on...

    Evaluating Exit Strategies

    When I visited your blog it seems to me like I was visiting a museum of some kind. The stuff you're looking at belong to the late 1980s. Pretty much worked to death in the last 20 years. Nobody in the right state of mind trades using stuff like that any more, I mean RSI and the likes. Your exits...

    Cold Fusion part deux, short every oil, gas & utility on the planet??

    Sure, no problem, with a 1000 W light bulb I can heat 292 grams of water to 101 deg. C. They are confusing power with energy. Power is energy divided by time. It will take them forever to generate the energy required to move generators. By that time, previously heated water will cool again and...
