I think if you had specifc conditions for buy/sell signals it would be
easier for us to help
With these you can do scans, explorations and backtesting of your ideas, and
to give signals for trading.
There is no single way of doing anything in trading, and we all tend to
march to our own beat with that. The common ground is the use of software
which is where we can help each other

Graham

Hi HB,
Thanks for the info. I guess I thought there was a way to use AB as a more
integral part of the process.
Oh, and by tracking signals, I meant monitoring the stocks in my 'universe'
and determining which ones are the better candidates for actually trading.
Thanks,
Stewart
