RE: [amibroker] RE: PosQty and which trades are selected in backtester

If there is any interest in making the BPI for AB, I could try coding it.
But I need some input on how to interpret and produce it.
For a starter here is a "maybe" approach
Create a composite that contains the total moves for the stocks. This would
be in real time and be compressed later for charting.
One thing that needs attention and is often a thing of personal preference
is the box sizing. I have developed a system for another chart type that
takes the box sizing from the chart moves by using an average of the bar to
bar moves and std devn of the moves. This can create a dynamic box size that
varies with the volatility.

So if anyone is interested in pursuing this, and providing help in producing
it let me know. If others are not interested in following this we could then
take the development process elsewhere for our discussions. (maybe even the
Amibroker-afl yahoo group site.)

There are a few programs that offer it built in
>From memory PFscan, Bulls-Eye Broker have it

It was something developed 50 years ago by chartcraft, so nothing new. 

I did a rough attempt at it some time ago, but I think the enhancements in
AB since then would make this easier for someone to write a new one.

Below, I have pasted a message that I posted on the Holygrail board with a
response to it.   Do one of you one of you Gurus want to try to see if he is
actually correct when He states that only Stockcharts offers Pullish Percent
charts?        BTW, I imagine that by now, you are all well aware that I
should be the poster boy of Non-Programmers.  Ron D.

Hi Ron,

"You feel like you are in Camelot when you are using
Amibroker."

Ah, come on Ron.  Camelot?  Camelot??  Ron, are you are a
programmer?  I'm not so when I use AB, I feel like I am in the
dungeon. lol

Acutally, I find Metastock much easier to use and learn than AB.  MS
seems to have more indicators pre-loaded than AB.  For instance,
AB's standard list of formulas doesn't even include %R.  Plus, MS
offers phone support as well as email.  And unless I am missing
something, only Stockcharts offers Bullish Percent charts as
compared to MS and AB.
