Hi,
I fully support Gilles' idea.
And, Graham, your point is well taken. Let's say you trade Australian stocks
and I told you there was a free, purified test database, comprised of
non-Australian stocks, that allowed you to test your bullish, bearish, and
range-bound systems and indicators. Further, let's say that there was
evidence of success with systems that have been developed using the data.
Would you consider using it?
thanks,
-john
