JOE:
Thanks. I downloaded the demo (hefty, all of 42 plus MB), will look at it
later. I am very interested in the system backtester. Almost every product
has a different scripting language, can't get away from that. But,
is it more than just a trivial "if close > 10-bar average, then buy".
I want to backtest with stop loss, profit objective, trailing stop, and
combination of indicator, e.g. momentum, volume, and a customized indicator.
Have you seen this capability in Trade Navigator? How is the support?
User forums? Is the product stil in beta mode, or have they released any
end-user version? What about Analysis of Trades, e.g. %
winners & losers, max drawdown, equity curve, min & max
winners/losers etc
RAKESH: same questions apply to AmiBroker, your answers and
comments appreciated.
Thanks to all who responded. I read at EliteTrader forum Murray
Ruggiero has a product called TradersStudio, with bundled systems, including
Murray's version of Turtles.
Regards,
Deo

Trade Navigator should be hooked up to all the major
brokers over the next few months. It will allow you to trade direct from the
chart or with a ladder. I have been a beta tester though I don't get
anything for that except the software to test. The system backtester is very
good and easy to use and the drawing tools and indicator list is extensive.
Support is good. They still have a couple of cosmetic issues with how they
track trades and how the ladder works but that is why they have beta
testers. The President of Genesis Glen Larson is the type of stand up guy
that really cares about getting it right more then just getting it out
there. I believe Trade Navigator will be a real player in the market.

Thanks Rashid. I've used DT3 and it would be overkill for
what I'm looking for. I have Advanced Get EOD. All I'm looking for is a
simple charting program which will use the real time data I get for free
from Interactive Brokers. All I need are price bars, On Balance Volume,
and a good set of drawing tools.

Earl,
If ur looking the best fibs software, try Dynamic
Trader.IMHO there is not a better software then DT to draw Fibs and
extensions.

deficient vis-a-vis Ensign WRT some line studies and some claim graphic
display quality. However it's strength in the area of backtesting ,
scripting et all has been appreciated by a lot of converts from the MS
and TS camps. It has data plug-ins for almost all major RT data feed
vendors. The biggest pluses are that in-spite of it's reasonably high
quality it is VERY moderately priced for a one-time cost and has a very
helpful user community that help you get to
speed.

gave up on it. Still looking ... Earl -----Original
