RE: Portfolio backtesting: Behold website

To make this story short, it's better to ask or to test yourself if you can
rather to base your assumptions on dozen of people here. Parallel  thinking
( TRAD vs Qcom) may yield to some false conclusion, and anyway it is not a
method to know  what happens. This is what I meant, no more, no less.

Ts Pro has a few weakness,  but overall it's very pleaseant and secure to
use, not so bad designed.
It will probably still have them, as your point of view may differ  from
mine and from the developers ( what is not the same).

Overall if we  have not had this software for more than 10 years, what would
have we done in the meantime ?...
