See, I told you this would happen.
So Jose, I couldn't agree with you more... IF... I were interested
in system development.
Paralysis by analysis has killed off many a new budding share trader
in the past (myself included many years ago).
I have since used the KISS priciple... a few moving averages, maybe
an RSI and MACD which gets the analysis done very quickly and gives
me time to invest early for more profit instead of analysing the
crap out of the stock. I tend to stay in the trade longer these days
also.
As for technical analysis... its like any mathematical formula...
you can make it show what you want to see simply by changing the
parameters. This is far too advanced for a new investor hence my
advice of free data and a simple system to follow to get him
started.
If he wishes to tackle writing his own systems at a later date then
OK.
I do have another data supplier (which I pay for BTW) for another
software programme I use and have NEVER found any difference in the
end of day data v the FREE data I get for Metastock (other than the
extra two hours each day I have to wait for it to be adjusted).
Just one further note:
my "simplistic "trading strategy"" generally returns between 30 -
50% per annum on average. This year I expect it to be closer to 60%
return.
Just imagine what I'd get if I was good at this?
