Subject: [amibroker] New to Amibroker. A few Questions
Hello Amibroker Community. I am thinking about purchasing Amibroker. I
have a few questions I would like to ask the community before I decided
whether or not I should purchase Amibroker . I know that most of my
question have been ask before or that they have been explain on the
amibroker website. But because of my past experience with other programs
such as Metastock. I decided to ask these question anyway to insure I
understand the capabilities of Amibroker.
1) How Does Amibroker back testing capabilities compare to other back
testing software such as Tradingbloxs and Traderstudio? Pro or Cons?
2) Is Amibroker capable of testing every aspect of the exact trading system
outlined by the Original Turtles System to include Turtle Money Management,
Correlated Market Risk Limits ,N-based Unit Sizing ,N-based Multiunit
Position Additions ,Simultaneous Blends of System One and System Two , and
The "Last Trade is Loser" rule?
3) I have a system that trades equities on an end of day time frame.
Basically It finds the direction of the market (S@x 500, Dow 30, Nasdaq,
NYSE.), then find sectors and subsectors that are moving into the same
direction of the market. Then chooses the top rank stock in these same
subsectors. My system includes various money management and position
sizing algorithms. Could I back test a system such as this on data back to
the 1950?
4) Speaking of data what data providers does the community at a whole
recommend for end of day trading. I am looking for the cleanest, and
longest ( as in years) Data. I am also look for data that is already setup
in sectors and subsectors (or industries and sub industries) as far back as
the data goes? (Not sure if Amibroker does this automatically)
5) In Amibroker is it possible to have these various metrics defined by
various time frames.
6) Can Amibroker chart for visual inspection, the various custom and non
custom back testing metrics on various user define time frame during
anytime in the back test?
7) In Amibroker when I do a back test is it possible to view, compare and
chart any market, Sector, Industries or individual stock on various user
define time frame during anytime in the back test?
8) Does Amibroker have a trade by trade report?
9) I am not a programmer, but I have come to the conclusion that my lack of
programming skill has become a problem in developing, test, and deployment
of my trading systems . What Book would you recommend to learn C and C++.
Thank You
ACE
