I have it. It's well documented, comes with source code and build
examples for several environments. I've only used it with VC++, but
have not had any problems. I don't think you can get at the internals
in the system tester.

From: Tom Strickland <tstrickland@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: Re: System
Moshe,
A few questions and comments:
1. What does MACD(14) mean? MACD requires two parameters, the time lengths
of the short-term and long-term moving averages.
2. The system you describe is similar to the standard interpretation of the
MACD indicator for long positions. However, if you wait until the MACD
crosses its moving average AND MACD>0, you may miss the whole move. The
MACD might cross its average before it crosses zero. I'd suggest you look
at buying when MACD is above both zero and its moving average.
3. Some recommend that you buy when the MACD crosses its moving average,
regardless of which side of zero it on. This is a more aggressive approach.
I prefer to wait until MACD is positive or at least there is a clear
indication that the price is moving up.
4. The MACD method should work for all trending markets. However, you are
likely to get whipsawed when the market is locked into a trading range.
5. You didn't say anything about going short. Do you only trade the long
side of the market?
Hope you find this useful.

In addition to etiquette and consideration for those who do not or cannot
set
their e-mail applications to read HTML, there are a couple additional
reasons
to encourage the use of plain text for e-mail lists.
Courtesy. HTML messages are larger, so downloading is a factor for those
who
monitor several lists or have slower internet connections.
More importantly, HTML e-mail is a security risk. There are increasing
occurrences of HTML containing code or executable scripts that, at best,
phone
home to confirm the address is good and report on readers' habits or, at
worst, embed trojan horses that can do serious damage just by viewing them.

Subject: Re: Question....
Try writing or calling the copywrite office or better write your 2
Washington senators or congressman. If a senator or a congressman sends a
query to a Federal agency, the head of the agency must reply within a short
period of time, I think its about 2 weeks. If one of your representatives
forwards your letter,you'll get a quick response. On the other hand you
might get no response or an irrelevant response to your letter from some or
all of your representatives.
You might try writing to Drummond. Offer to give him full credit for his
original formulation and referencing his book.
While patent law covers formulas (they are not patentable), copywrite law is
quite different and regulated by a different agency.
Based on my experience in industry, I sort of doubt that formulas by
themselves can be copywrite.In engineering matters, the only way people have
made money out of their formulas was to keep them secret and manufacture the
better equipment that followed from their research. One such example are the
transmission towers that support power lines. Some decades ago a Canadian
company developed a different method for designing these towers that
resulted in lighter and cheaper structures. This gave them a huge
competitive edge all over the world. After a few years, the competition
figured it out themselves, so the edge was lost. At this point the chief
engineer published the basic methodology and it later became an accepted
design method for steel structures.
No structural engineer has ever paid a fee for using formulas/methods that
were published in copywrite but open literature. Some of these
formulas/methods were worth megabucks to the industry.
Has anyone heard of Wilder, Williams, Rashcke getting fees from people like
us when we use their published copywrite formulas or procedures?

If we're talking about the same documents, I've got the problem as well:
Normal

Subject: Re: Question....
Hi Glen,
You raise some interesting questions. I can't answer the first one about
copyright laws (but it seems Lionel did). And Drummond may require
a non-disclosure agreement for his training material, but I received my
literature
not from Drummond ... but from one of the original students of P&L (lets
call
him Mr. X) trained personally by Drummond back in the early 80's (Mr. X has
his own training material). Mr. X didn't require a non-disclosure agreement,
but I
still don't want to anger Drummond, and he rightly deserves full credit for
this
method! Is this mine to give away? Well I don't claim to "own" the P&L
method,
but you can't learn the method from my MetaStock code or the "Expert" I
developed... but it still might reveal things Drummond wouldn't want in
public.
Mathematically all the calculations are simple, since they deal strictly
with the
High's, low's close, and a 3 day moving average.
Do I recommend this method... well I am still testing, but so far it has
impressed
me to the point of spending many hours developing my trading tools to use
with it, and the more I learn the better I like it!

Thanks Craig. I agree with you about Netscape. However I use Agent as

Thanks for the kind words, Chris. I seem to have an impulse to instruct,
and I enjoy writing; the combination can get me carried away sometimes.
I think in the long run we'll all move away from plain-text to HTML-enabled
e-mail. It does have the advantage, as some list members pointed out, of
displaying the attached chart immediately in the e-mail window itself,
rather than obliging the recipient to open a separate program. But the
extensive text formatting that often shows up seems to me unnecessary.
Nonetheless, we'll probably soon find ourselves being solicited by high
priced web design consultants eager to create for us our unique individual
e-mail "looks" -- e-mail meets feng-shui. Ain't progress wonderful?

In addition to etiquette and consideration for those who do not or cannot
set
their e-mail applications to read HTML, there are a couple additional
reasons
to encourage the use of plain text for e-mail lists.
//////Upgrade is something anyone can do, of free will and for FREE, so
point not taken!
Courtesy. HTML messages are larger, so downloading is a factor for those
who
monitor several lists or have slower internet connections.
//////Messages are what it says, 1-2-3 liners. Mails are multiple liners
thus can get larger.
If monitoring a list, reduce that to monitoring what is of your
intrest, and skip other
mails/lists.
More importantly, HTML e-mail is a security risk. There are increasing
occurrences of HTML containing code or executable scripts that, at best,
phone
home to confirm the address is good and report on readers' habits or, at
worst, embed trojan horses that can do serious damage just by viewing them.
//////You yourselves are the risk-factor. For that I have forwarded enough
prevention-mails.
HTML cannot infect your mailer if you leave attachments un-open-ed.
Wether they
be virusses, trohjans or whatever attached "bugs"(note that they
cannot be embedded,
they can only be referenced in the code AND be attached as a file).
But : Whatever you do, do not Share (disks).
Save an attachment to temp-disk first, than view file with a proper
Viewer, and
Delete permenantly if uncertain.(Youcan use the UNDELETE command to
truely check
if a file has been fully deleted from the disk(=also a large file).
All basic prevention-stuff.

Subject: Re: metastock-digest V1 #900
- -the code you see is indeed HTML code
- -cause: the Digest software is outdated, eg software stems from the early
90's.
Software that stems from the early 90's, when it was a common standard to
only produce (the old hat) ASCII popup messages as emails
(where popup = the "3-liners": Hello, All is well & Goodby, eg.
the -content less-messages).
This was also because the printers in those had to be shared with others and
were
only capable to produce black&white print outs, eg text only at first and
later for the
"regular print jobs" added were some simple drawings, again later to be
followed
by images etc., eg rich printing.
It is thus not your OE program that's at "fault" here, but plainly the
Digest's mailserver
software inabillity to properly produce the of late 90's stemming mails in
the
everywhere else commonly accepted standard plain WYSIWYG email format.
(Hurray for Win 95).
Thus as a Digest-member too, you are still witheld often very vital
information.
The workaround (for the moment, until Equis gets it Digest software fixed &
updated) is therefore for you to also become a regular List-member in stead.
This way then you can not only benefit from directly reading the full emails
in your
mail program(f.e. OE), and/but be as well informed like any other
List-member gets/is,
(thus this mail information should also be available to its sister group,
the Digest mailers)
and therefore also view the mail's full contents in the outlay and in the
format when the
mails were produced originaly by their senders in the first place.

You are correct. The law and the constitution means whatever a judge decides
they means. This was attributed to Oliver Wendell Holmes, a chief judge of
the Supreme Court.
What is an MOJ?
Incidentally, over the years several companies have successfully sued
Microsoft for just this kind of abusive behavior. There was the Stacker
Electronics case which cost Microsoft $250 megs plus their legal costs. They
probably could have bought Stacker for about $15 to $20 megs.

Sorry to hear about your wife's father.
What a miserable, rotten day. We had a buy signal for the S&P futures,
which ended up as a positive trade. I, OTOH, picked a really terrible day
to make my move into equities. I guess I should have warned the list, since
I've always had the kiss of death when it comes to stocks. :-) I just
thought that since my brother has been so successful with his trading in the
stock market, keyed to our S&P signals, I'd give it a try.
I waited a bit this morning, but had to go into the office today, so I
pulled the trigger by 7AM (PST). Here are my positions, for what they're
worth:
AMAT
ERICY
FLEX
GMST
IDTI
JDSU
MEDI
NTAP
NVLS
ORCL
PMCS
QLGC
RNWK
The FLEX, IDTI and NVLS were added when the NASDAQ was down 250. Still
should have waited. I guess, my better move was to wait for the close.
Anyway, at least the stuff I bought were shares of 'real' companies, not
like some of those paper tigers that took it in the shorts today. Since we'
re expecting some pretty good earnings in the next 2 weeks, I don't think we
'll be hurt too badly.
Now, I've got to look for various opportunities to add to my positions,
since I'm only a little over half invested (on margin).
Right now, I'm going to take some baking soda to calm my stomach and the
pizza my little guy wanted for dinner this evening.
BURP!

Guy

All,
I haven't posted since my wife's father passed away a week ago
Thursday. It's been a sad and hectic time for us. He was a wonderful
gentleman who lived a long life and is at rest now. We will never forget
him, but life must go on.
This week's pick is GM's Hughes Electronics Corp (GMH). It is the
publicly traded space and wireless communications unit of automaker General
Motors. GMH will sell its satellite manufacturing and launch operations to
Boeing. GMH which derives about 40% of its sales from its satellite
businesses will refocus on communications services, including its DIRECTV,
the largest US satellite TV broadcaster, with 9 million customers, the
19-satellite network PanAmSat (81%-owned), and Spaceway, a global network
that will offer broadband video and data on demand. It also supplies
wireless business networks and other telecommunications equipment.
GMH at 124 ½ just bounced off the bottom of its Intermediate Term Up
Trend Channel (ITUTC). The top of the ITUTC is at 157 1/8 and the bottom is
at 116. GMH broke out of a CANSLIM type cup formation and set an all time
high of 141 a little over a week ago before pulling back to bounce off the
bottom of its ITUTC. This looks like a good entry point to me. The
fundamentals are OK except that the price/sales is on the high side at
16.96. The debt/equity is low at 0.16. The sales will drop off for a while
with the sale of their satellite manufacturing and launch business, but when
assets are redeployed there should be amble worldwide growth in the DIRECTV
business. I'll open a position Monday with my initial target just under the
top of the ITUTC at 157 and my stop just under the bottom of the ITUTC at
115 3/4
