Never mind tapping the massive brain power of a Walt or Clyde on this one Bob .
. . I came up with a very simple solution, despite my severely limited
cognitive resources!
All kidding aside, this method works very well, but only with EOD. You need to
use the Omega Offline Data Server.
All you need to do is advance your system clock to include the period that your
trying to forecast. I use this method on a daily basis to do dynamic Fib and
Gann projections. It works great!
As you mentioned in your post, you need dummy EOD data stored for each issue
that you want to study. I do 2 to 3 day projections, so manually entering dummy
data is no big deal. But if you want to make longer term projections, simply
create an ASCII file of dummy dates and data and import via the Offline Server.
One drawback - sometimes I forget to re-set my clock before sending e-mail.
This will screw-up any e-mail systems that sort by date. My e-mail always
shows up on their systems as the most recent one sent. (Notice I didn't forget
this time!)
Hope this helps,
Bob Hunt
