Hi,
 
I just wonder if they are using Innerfuse 
Pascal script (<A 
href="">http://www.carlo-kok.com/projects.php?project=3).
It a freeware that comes with the 
Delphi source and it is pretty easy to add the functions for trading 
systems & drawing.
 
 
Best regards,
Tomasz Janeczko

Their script language is quite powerful for trading 
systems and drawing.  One can do quite a bit with the 
freebie.

Hi,
 
Thanks. Haven't noticed that there is a desktop 
version!
Glad to see that they charge $300 
:-)

WealthLab is nice. I am curious how 
long will they be free.
I found some interesting ideas 
there...

How about entry to lowest trough = trade 
drawdown
 
Did you notice the script functions listed 
on the Wealth-Lab site?  Is that where AB is 
headed?

Hello,
 
Thank you for the 
information.
BTW, here is a definition of Max. 
Intraday drawdown from wealthlab:

"Max IntraDay Drawdown
This value represents the greatest peak to trough 
distance in your equity curve.  Beware of Systems that have a 
high Drawdown value."
This is exactly what I meant in my previous e-mail: 
"greatest peak to trough distance".
Now: how should we call entry to lowest trough 
distance ( a drawdown measure already present in AmiBroker) 
??

Tomasz:
 
Since you will have maximum drawdown, I 
suggest including Risk-Adjusted Return (RAR).  This is a 
standard system evaluation metric that divides a risk measurement 
by the annualized rate of return.  You could use maximum 
drawdown as the risk measurement, but other measures (volatility, 
standard deviation, etc.) would also work.
 
The following link lists the system 
evaluation parameters used by Wealth-Lab:

additional back-testing statistics would you like to see in 
AmiBroker?Please give me your suggestions with the 
description.For version 3.64 already included 
are:- Annual system percentage profit- Annual 
B&H percentage profit- Maximum drawback calculated 
from maximum equity value  to the minimum equity value 
  (BTW: How to name this one? I have no idea)  
(note this is different from current max. drawback calculation 
which    computes max. equity dip from the 
trade entry)- Bars out of marketI have got 
already some of your earlier suggestionsbut anyone has 
something more?Best regards,Tomasz
