Re: [amibroker] FFT

The restrictions associated with FFT that Ehlers mentions can be found in any textbook.  As for better results with FFT, the next step is to evaluate the cycles statistically (e.g., Bartels, F-ratio, chi-square, etc.).  Beyond that one can go to MESA and such.

Frankly for me these are John Ehlers typical arguments to use his MESA model in stead of FFT and has nothing to do with a discussion. The question for me still remains if there really is no way to get better results with FFT than the ones we have got ? If Fourier analysis is correct and it's possible to simulate whatever continues timeseries with a bunch of sinewaves and if MESA can give me the correct harmonics, it should also be possible to obtain the same results with a modified version of FFT. Question is how ?

There is a discussion of FFT use and problems on Ehlers MESA website:

I was playing with AB's FFT code that TJ provided...
 
The cycles seem to shift relative to the data, based on how many data points are analyzed. This is of course expected.
 
Question:
 
Has anyone found a way to determine optimum number of data points to analyze, and then determine the relevance of the dominant cycle, or find any relevant cycles?
 
Most of the time the dominant cycle seems to be the largest one available.
 
Has anyone been able to use these cycles succesfully?
