DT:
I think it reasonable that anything on this board most
probably will be assumed by many to be related to trading. I certainly
read this board in that light and, therefore, associated comments regarding
trading are, imo, appropriate.

Subject: [amibroker] Re: DTFFT
Bill,I do not understand the purpose of your
reply.Nobody said anything for the use of FFT for trading purposes. I have
exposed analytically in the past the reasons, have a look at the list
archives.I present here an AFL approach for the Elementary Fourier
Analysis, the next step after the crude linear trend. The code is
original, free for the amibroker users and already placed in the files
section of this list.MESA software, AFAIK, is a [well known]
commercial product, there is no reason to advertise it here, especially
when it is not related to the subject.If you want to present this
theory, please do begin a new thread.Your comments on the AFL method will
be appreciated and this is the main reason of the
presentation.Dimitris Tsokakis--- In amibroker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,

> FFT is the acronym for Fast Fourier Transform. FFT is a computer
algorithm to perform the Fourier Transforms rapidly. The correct use
of Fourier Transforms is subject to several constraints. First, the
data must be stationary (non-shifting) over the observation period.
Secondly, an integer number of cycles must be used in the analysis.
The Nyquist theory of sampled data systems states that there must be
at least two samples per cycle. These constraints pose a dilemma for
analysis of price data. > > For example, if we have data
consisting of 64 points (64 days in the market), the longest cycle we can
measure is 64 days. The next longest cycle is 64/2=32 days. The next
longest available cycle is 64/3=21.3 days. The next cycle is 64/4=16 days,
etc. The 64 day data simply does not provide good resolution to identify
the cycles because there is a 5 day gap between measured results right in
the most active cycle region. The only way to increase resolution is to
increase the data length. However, if the data length is increased
there is a significantly lower probability that the cycle has not
shifted over the entire data length. In fact, it is downright
unlikely. > > Thus the use of FFTs for trading is not
advisable. MESA2002 accurately extracts short term cycles using an
adaptive short data length, and therefore MESA2002 should be your cycle
measurement method. > > > > -----
