Hi Natasha,
Thanks for the response. I am comfortable with programming so I
am fine with writing scripts if I have to. As long as once I write
them, I can do everything else, including invoking them from within
amibroker.
As far as data, my interest is to automatically download and
cleanup the data at the end of everyday. My key interest is automating
it. I believe I should be spending my valuable time
developing/testing new models and evaluating them. Want to take the
mundane everyday processing activities of the model on autodrive as
much as possible.
And was wondering how amibroker could help me there. That includes
trading live when the time comes. :-) I am lazy. I know :-).
Well to be honest, i keep hearing that you have to choose/build a
trading system around your strengths and weeknesses. An my weakness is
that I get sidetracked with other stuff and am not consistent in
following up with my own trading rules. And If I don't, I will never
know how good my stystems are. Even if I forget to do it one day in
week, it affects the system in the long run. So I want to take my
remove the affect my weakness from the system.
Hence I automate the day to day activities.
Thanks,
Sarvi
