Subject: [amibroker] Simulator 1.20
Update (bug fix)
If you use the Simulator I would ask you to update with this
version as it contains a bug fix.You must have Amibroker® 4.25 or

You can download this update from the Amibroker 3rd Party

Simulator Version 1.20 for Amibroker® Read
Me
Feburary 08, 2003 13.00
Written by: William Peters <A
href="">williampeters1@xxxxxxxxxxxx
REQUIREMENTS
Windows 95 or higher
Amibroker® 4.25 or higher
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.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Save the Simulator.exe file to the Amibroker® directory. ie.
c:\Program File\Amibroker\Simulator.exe
**Note: Only perform the following step if you have not previously
installed the Simulator.**
Run Amibroker® and open the menu items: Tools --> Customise. Add
the Simulator.exe as a NEW tool and name it 'Simulator'.
USAGE INSTRUCTIONS
Open the ticker code you require in your simulation.
Run the Simulator tool from: Tools --> Simulator
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.
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.
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.
You can pause and continue the simulation.
To use the Simlator on another ticker. First 'Stop' the simulation,
then open the new ticker and click 'Run'

size=-1>CHANGES FOR VERSION 1.20 (as compared to 1.14)
Fixed bug connected with regional settings. Currencies with a comma
for the decimal place were affecting the preload bars.
<FONT face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color=#cc0000
size=-1>CHANGES FOR VERSION 1.14 (as compared to 1.13)
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.
Used a vastly improved method to preload bars. (1000 preload bars is
almost instant.)
Fixed the problem where numerous Amibroker® documents were opening in
the background.
Modified the tooltip text for the text boxes.
<FONT face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color=#cc0000
size=-1>CHANGES FOR VERSION 1.13 (as compared to 1.12)
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.
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.
<FONT face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color=#cc0000
size=-1>CHANGES FOR VERSION 1.12 (as compared to 1.0)
Modifid the user interface so its smaller and changed the button
configuration.
Removed the labels for the edit boxes (There are tooltips for each
edit box, just hold you cursor over them for a moment)
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.
The selected ticker code now appears in the Amibroker® title bar and
ticker list.
The speed of the Simular is now entered in milliseconds.
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.
Some internal efficiency improvements.
