I like it, very entertaining. Does it only
work on the default price chart, or can it be used with custom indicator
windows?

<font size=2 color=blue
face=Arial>Try it,
you'll like it!! Load a favorite indicator then follow the
directions to launch the simulator. It "Plays" stock from bar one
forward. Pause to draw trend lines, not divergences etc then hit play to see if
you were correct.

Windows 95 or higher
<font

Amibroker® 4.25 or higher<font

VB6 Runtime Files
(See Note at bottom of this page to obtain these files if they are not already
intalled on your computer). The Simulator should still run with the older VB5
runtime files, just try it first. Also ensure you try running the Simulator
before downloading and installing these files as they might already be
installed on your system.
<span
>INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">1.<font
size=1>
Save the
Simulator.exe file to the Amibroker® directory. ie. c:\Program
File\Amibroker\Simulator.exe
<span
>**Note: Only perform the following step if you have
not previously installed the Simulator.**
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">2.<font
size=1>
Run Amibroker®
and open the menu items: Tools --> Customise. Add the Simulator.exe as a NEW
tool and name it 'Simulator'.
<font size=2
face="Times New Roman">USAGE
INSTRUCTIONS
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">1.<font
size=1>
Open the ticker code
you require in your simulation.
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">2.<font
size=1>
Run the Simulator
tool from: Tools --> Simulator
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">3.<font
size=1>
Enter the prefered
speed: Default is 50 milliseconds. As an example if you want it to run slower
enter 1000. The range is between 0 and 10000 milliseconds.
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">4.<font
size=1>
Enter the number of
bars for the simulation: ie. 252 bars is approx 1 year for a daily simulation.
If you enter 0 then the program will use all available bars.
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">5.<font
size=1>
If you are working
with an indicator that has a lag period then you can set the preload period so
the program will start at the point where the indicator kicks in.
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">6.<font
size=1>
You can pause and
continue the simulation.
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">7.<font
size=1>
To use the Simlator
on another ticker. First 'Stop' the simulation, then open the new ticker and
click 'Run'
<span
>CHANGES
FOR VERSION 1.14 (as compared to 1.13)
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">1.<font
size=1>
Re-wrote routines
using the new Retrieve method to get the quotes. This has resulted in a
significant increase in the overall speed of the program.
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">2.<font
size=1>
Used a vastly
improved method to preload bars. (1000 preload bars is almost instant.)
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">3.<font
size=1>
Fixed the problem
where numerous Amibroker® documents were opening in the background.
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">4.<font
size=1>
Modified the tooltip
text for the text boxes.
<span
>CHANGES
FOR VERSION 1.13 (as compared to 1.12)
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">1.<font
size=1>
The pause and stop
button now take effect for the currently displayed bar. There was previously an
overun of 1 bar before they took effect.
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">2.<font
size=1>
You can now change
the delay time (milliseconds) after the user clicks the pause button. There was
a bug in the previous version which ignored that setting.
<span
>CHANGES
FOR VERSION 1.12 (as compared to 1.0)
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">1.<font
size=1>
Modifid the user
interface so its smaller and changed the button configuration.
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">2.<font
size=1>
Removed the labels
for the edit boxes (There are tooltips for each edit box, just hold you cursor
over them for a moment)
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">3.<font
size=1>
Added a new parameter
to preload a specified number of days. This is helpful if you have an indicator
that only kicks in after quite a long period. For example a 200 day MA will
only start drawing after 200 days have passed requiring the user to wait until
200 days have passed before viewing the indicator.
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">4.<font
size=1>
The selected ticker
code now appears in the Amibroker® title bar and ticker list.
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">5.<font
size=1>
The speed of the
Simular is now entered in milliseconds.
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">6.<font
size=1>
The Simulator program
now starts up as a child window to the Amibroker® program. If you minimize
or move the Amibroker® program the Simulator will also minimize or move
with the main program. Very simular to the the AA window.
<font
size=2 face="Times New Roman">7.<font
size=1>
Some internal
efficiency improvements.
