I support
2 kids in college
a mortgage

I live in Point Loma - in San Diego (cost of living is high here)
I spent the month of March in Tahiti + BoraBora + Hawaii
I have not had a 'real job' for over 4 years

A majority of my income comes from trading - Amibroker Std version is
the only TA software I use.

Most of the indicators I use I wrote myself. I just finished reading
Howard Bandys book (for the second time) - and used the information
there to make some improvements my indicators - Thanks Howard.

Maybe you would be better suited to pay up for Metastock Pro, then buy
several add-ons - remember you get what you pay for and of course
they are guaranteed to make you tons of money - AB is not. MS has a
forum on Yahoo - go check it out.
