None of the above solutions worked for me. I think the basic problem is you cannot use a 32-bit DLL with a 64-bit application. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. MG I can't believe how awesome ET is. It would have taken me a very long time to figure this out. [/B]

In all fairness, I think it may be prudent to recognize that there's still clearly two different market segments for backtesting and trading platforms, EOD and RT. Most of my frustrations (publically expressed or not) undoubtedly comes from the rather slow integration of both segments into a...

In the Data Server, OpenTick was the only EOD data vender that allowed me to use a * to add from/all available tickers. In fairness, I didn't look at many of the real-time vendors, but my sore experience is they rarely support such a feature. So I'm unclear about what you're saying with the...

I've been using and/or trialing all of the various trading softwares way back since 1990, so I'd thought I'd give my input to what seems to be a relatively negative-biased "review" on AmiBroker: 1. It is not that difficult to plot indicators or do other things than "just back-testing" in...

I've found several problems with IBD and CANSLIM: 1. IBD has a neo-Conservative editorial bias. You just hope that they are as rigorous with their data mining as they are sloppy with their cognitive biases. 2. They engage in historical revision of market calls in The Big Picture. It is...
