Hey Rol, it's been a long time. Any updates? Hope you're well.

How are you weathering the post-election storm? Hope it's going alright...

Does rule 3 ever get invoked or is that just a hypothetical?

The performance issues I speak of are not regarding WPF, but the charting control itself. I used it in both its WinForms life as well as WPF and its performance is poor compared to other controls out there. http://leecampbell.blogspot.com/2010/01/my-wpf-charting-comparisons.html

My experience with charting from the WPF Toolkit is that it's easy to use, but suffers from very poor performance, especially for large datasets. I explored it some time ago for financial charting and decided not to use it because of its poor performance.

Are you inviting us to a guessing game? :D Level 2 data?

Right, and my point, which you are repeatedly missing, is that based on that one post, you have no idea whether he uses a news feed or not. You have no information on his system whatsoever other than it was translated from his manual trading and that it was built up from .NET. You assume that...

To conclude that it isn't event-driven knowing only that it was built from scratch in .NET is incorrect. If there's other information you're basing that conclusion on, let's hear it.

1) You make your point in the first paragraph and then repeat it in paragraphs 2 and 3 for no apparent reason (or added effect). 2) He said the system was built from the ground up in .NET, not using Easylanguage 3) I fail to see where he mentions at all what the systems trades are based...

Why would someone who is well-versed in "making money" need volunteer help?

Maybe you don't get the negative responses because you don't have the vantage point of an experienced software developer. If an experienced developer really wants to learn about a new industry, he will find work in that industry. Most software development skills are universal, regardless of...

Fair enough, but be prepared for some bumps in the road (and perhaps expensive ones) along the way. They are called growing *pains* for a reason.

Good luck finding a truly experienced developer to work for free. You get what you pay for.

10 days without an update is a bit early to be calling the thread "dead"...

Hi Rol, Long time since I commented. Sorry to see your recent events, but glad to see you're sticking to it. The recent turn of events got me thinking. Your strategy is already somewhat insulated against black swan events for a particular stock, due to diversification. You've shown that...

Rol, just wanted to say that I continue to read this thread and that it is an inspiration to me. Keep it up. There are a lot of lurkers like me who are rooting for you.

Rest assured I read every new post as it's written (I am subscribed), but my day job has been quite busy lately which has relegated me to being an observer more than a participant. You're basically accomplishing what I would like to do within the next couple of years. I also have a day job...

Rol, these charts are very informative. It's been a long time since I've seen a thread this candid and interesting on ET. I do find it interesting that your losing days, although they occur less, are typically larger in magnitude than your winnings days. It seems like lots of small winners vs...

Rol, Good to see things are still going well! You mentioned earlier in this thread your general method of coming up with this strat was to look through the historical data for when a stock had a large daily uptick, then look at the daily bars prior to that and see if you can observe a...

You're missing my point. Sure, you can use a forum to get help with questions like: what are the best tools? How do I use these tools? etc. - those are good questions to get help with. However, I would personally never trade something based only a test result obtained from a forum. What if...
