Yep, same ghoup! If I win today, 3 weeks in a row! But I think I'm
in trouble with 2nd place today.....
HA!
I'm still working in my old MetaStock, but gave up, and want to try
my MACD volume-weighted histogram backtest using AB.
Who are you over at "The Super?"
p.s. - I'm evaluating your form as we speak. My problem is I'm new
to AB and weak on the syntax until I get up to speed.
Glad to see another friend here.
