Yes, and no. I have a profile which I use for stocks, and I find that it works just fine for mutual funds also. But as I think I said in the previous post, I trade on a weekly/monthly basis with stocks also.
I have found Omnitrader to be an interesting program. The manuals and Help screens don't provide much trading guidance, so it takes lots of perseverance and trials (but so does Metastock). I find that using the LabMode in Omnitrader is a fairly good way to test modified systems and quantify results. It would be nice if Omnitrader had a routine to run LabMode automatically, but so far it doesn't.
