RE: [amibroker] Random Data Generator

["Howard Bandy" <howardbandy@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi John –

 

AmiBroker already has a random number
generator.  If you want to add random noise to existing data, try
something like this:

 

Rc = C + random();

 

And then compute your moving averages, or
whatever, using Rc instead of C.

 

The AmiBroker Help system will tell you
all about using random.  It generates from a uniform distribution, in the
range of 0 to 1.  If you need some other distribution (normal,
exponential, etc), post back to the forum and someone will help you.

 

Howard

I am looking for a random data generator. I have
looked at Ami 
function and in excel. But neither produce
o/h/l/c. I want to be able 
to import the data into Ami and backtest on the
same data. My 
thinking is to backtest over several sets of data
and if the results 
are close maybe I have something.

Any thoughts 

Thanks

John
