While the list is a useful contribution and effort on behalf of the provider(s?). It would be immensely more useful to provide samples of N period objective functions or simple returns based upon any given indicator's entry/exit criteria.
Any list of that somewhere on the forums?
If you are going to spend that much time benevolently coding indicators, why not provide the summary of trades measurement lists (annualized % rtn, sharp ratio, PF, etc.) as well?
Too much time is spent showing how to code a price derivative indicator on the boards, and not enough devoted to showing statistical measurements generated by utilizing these indicators. Anyone looking to learn should start focusing on this aspect before getting lost in the myriad labyrinth of subjective price derivatives.
The dearth of knowledge in this area is evidenced by some of the comments on this thread, like "what is the best crossover parameters," or "how do you get rid of the lag?"
