First-rate code DParia thanks for sharing, at a glance it seems to be very responsive. Dickie Paria <babui@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
 How would like to trade a system that will make you rich beyond your  wildest dreams, lower your cholesterol and make you a better lover in  bed ?!!  Don't think such a system exists !!  then read on - my  sceptical friend........(afl code is below)
  This system was revealed to me, this morning, as I was crossing 5th  Ave and 34th St...a bright white light shown down on me and I heard a  Voice - "O' Grasshopper - combine a smart money flow indicator with a  momemtum indicator".  I asked - which indicators - there are so many  of them ?  The Voice replied - "must you ask such stupid qts,  Grasshopper.  There is only the FVE smart money indicator by Markos  Katsanos and the TSI momemtum indicator by William Blau.  And...test  it only on volatile sectors".
  Such revelations come only once in a blue moon - so I
 put together  the system (after playing around with many buy/sell rules) and tested  it on all the stocks in the Biotech sector from Yahoo (I think about  a 100+ stocks) from 6/14/02 - 6/13/04.  $10k equity, 50% margin, Long  only, $16 trade comm.  Results - 25 trades, 15 winners and annual  return of 312%.  Gotta be a fluke, I said.  So, I tried it on the  same stocks from 6/14/04 - 6/13/05.  Annual return 335% !!
  Ok. there is a catch.  There always is !  The buy/sell delays were  set to '0' (meaning buy/sell happened as soon as the conditions were  met).  This system would work only for those folks with fancy  automated trading (through IB with AB). 
  What about the rest of us Grasshoppers who buy and sell on the open  with a 1 day trade delay ?  Well, I re-tested and 6/14/02 - 6/13/04  and 6/14/04 - 6/13/05 showed annual returns of 28% and 26%  respectively.  Respectable....I
 guess.
  What about other volatile sectors - you say ?  Sheeet ! O'  Grasshoppers in training - must I do all the work ?
  [Ok. Ok.  So, I did exaggerate on the 'lowering cholesterol and being  better lovers in bed' but - hey - you can't ask for everything]
