Hi all,
A short post to let everyone know that both the ATAA
Conference and the “Howard in Australia” Workshops are proceeding
to plan.
Check out the web sites: http://howardinaustralia.com.au/
and also http://ATAA.com.au/conference
The workshops are attracting some really experienced
traders and competent AmiBroker users. Most participants so far have
signed up for the full week. My guess is that there will be a lot of
learning both from Howard and also from each other. Perhaps personal
co-operation, links and friendships will be formed that will last well beyond
the workshops.
The workshops will be quite intimate. My estimate
is that there will be around 30 people in each (unless we get a late
“rush”), even then, 40 is a likely maximum.
As many of you know from my earlier post, I consider
Howard Bandy the pre-eminent authority on effective trading systems
design. AmiBroker is a fabulous tool! However, to get real value
from trading you need a deep understanding of both the theory and practice of
system design, testing and validation. Howard is superb in theory development,
example presentation and in educational information transfer (The University
Professor Background, no doubt). Have a read of the testimonials on the
Howard in Australia web site.
I have worked hard to get Howard to come to Australia and
to get this workshop together, it has been a labour of conviction (I was going
to say “love” but that sounds a bit “woosie”) . I
really hope that AmiBroker based traders in Australia (and anywhere else) do
take the opportunity – such an opportunity does not happen often.
The quote “If you think education is expensive, try ignorance”
often attributed to Einstein, is appropriate.
Hope to see you in Melbourne.
Regards,
Robert
