Hello Michael,


for copyright and other legal considerations 'AmiBroker' requires that significant contributions are contributed by the author.


I looked at your work and the formatting used will not be compatible with WordPress (the publishing tool we use). However you could write an Introductory Post (in plain text, no formatting) on what the  Trading-Framework can do for a system developer and how it is to be used, and upload the files to the UKB site. Your post would contain links to all the files (on the UKB) you use. The information for the Post can be extracted from your writings (it is all there), this is some duplication but it is the only way you can publish your work on the UKB without a major rework.


We could create a sub-category under 'Trading Room' named 'Organization' for you to post you framework in. Would that be a proper category for your presentation?


If you decide to go this route and have written the Introductory Post, feel free to contact me if you need help with the publishing process.


Best regards,

herman
