With help from some friends I started building a multiple stock system tester some years ago. The
collective work is now known as "Trade Equity". The tools are based on equity indicators that serve
as backbone for groups of explorations. The exploration reports can easily be copied to Excel and
summed, or processed further in whatever manner you wish. I have some simple "key-stroke recorded"
macros which serve me well.
Nothing I've seen of the Advanced System Tester in MS 8.01 has convinced me that it a superior tool
to Trade Equity. TE doesn't have all the bells and whistles of a $1000 package but then you wouldn't
expect that for free fully disclosed MetaStock code would you. All of the explorations are disclosed
and there is now a separate series of explorations for reporting monthly performance from daily and
weekly systems.
A "soon to be released" feature will allow limited parameter optimisation. This will work on the
basis of successive explorations across a database adjusting a selected system parameter at the end
of each exploration.
The tools are available to be used as you see fit.
