[amibroker] Re: PositionScore Ideas

QRS is updated daily and goes as far back as 6/1/1995 in the QP2 database.

Just a suggestion... set aside whatever preconcieved notions you may
have about this and take the time to research it and do a little due
diligence. You might be glad you did.

variables are not updated daily, so I don't think they would be useful
for a short-term trading system like I was talking about. Using
PositionScore over a modest time period, you'd get the same 4 stocks
all the time, wouldn't you, or at least until they get updated.
Perhaps QRS gets updated weekly, so maybe that wouldn't be as bad, but
I think I'd like something that is more reflective of the trade system
duration, in other words, something that I can update daily at EOD.
