[EquisMetaStock Group] Re: PDA version and a wish

Hi Super,  I have been reasonably satisfied with my end of day 
trading. I am modestly positive for this year.
Currently working on a daytrade system aimed at making aggressively 
high returns. It is certainly not practical to use with my day job, 
and it is a backup for me. I can do the daytrade using my laptop and 
watching the screens and the different filters and conditional 
orders I need to use the system; but have not got a great way to use 
it off a PDA. Actually it is not PDA friendly due to the filters and 
conditional orders needed to execute it.

I am working with a friend on a Tradestation version as it can 
autoexecute as well or do that after confirmation. When I am ready 
for MS, I would seek help from one of our more well known trusted 
members of this group to do the program. Your choice would probably 
be the same as mine..

I don't have the desire to learn another platform but it looks like 
I have to - and that will be Tradestation.
Never seen Amibroker in action but have heard members say positive 
things. Too bad that MS is not that aggressive. Reality is that they 
will eventually lose their data business if they do not stay up 
keeping MS uptodate. Many management teams fail in this manner. Cash 
cows last only so long before they get eaten up.
