Chuck,
 
1) You make the comment "If you 
aren't trading a basket of stocks, I don't think you would get the value out of 
TradeSim."
Can you please explain why this is the 
case?
 
2) Is it correct that Monte Carlo analysis would 
help if I was running only one securtiy and reinvesting the profit after each 
trade
as compared to no value using Monte Carlo with a 
single security if I traded a fixed amount on each trade?
 
3) How easy is it to take a Metastock Trading 
Strategy and run it in TradeSim?
 
4) What are the different inputs you typically add 
above and beyong the trading strategy to perrform the analysis?
 
I Had read the manula on TradeSim about six-months 
ago before I was really able to understand the value of Monte Carlo
and these area few questions that have popped up in 
the past six months before seeing your post response.
 
Thanks,
 
Bill Hebert

  Yes, 
  I use TradeSim extensively.   What MS8 (and AmiBroker too, for that 
  matter) doesn't do is show you the effect of randomizing your stock 
  selections.   TradeSim's Monte Carlo Simulation will let you see how 
  randomly selecting your buy/short signals would have performed.  This 
  assumes, of course, that your funds aren't sufficient to take every signal 
  generated by your trading system.   If you aren't trading a basket 
  of stocks, I don't think you would get the value out of 
  TradeSim.

  benefit in that you can see how well your entire portfolio would have 
  done.

  If 
  you have specific questions about TradeSim, don't hesitate to 
  ask.

    anyone out there had experience using Tradesim Proffessional with Metastock 
    V8.  Does it offer any significant advantages over the built in 
    Enhanced system tester? Is it worth the hassel / expense?Your 
    comments would be 
    appreciatedRegardsWalterTo
