Dear members. I need to take a decision regarding a platform to use for creating strategies. I considered R Statistics and Python, but I noticed that I had to spend a lot of time to find information around the Internet and I did not want to re-invent the wheel. AmiBroker so far is the only valid option that comes to my mind since it supports MonteCarlo, WalkForward and Variable Space Optimization. I would like to know what you think about this platform. I want to prove myself I can create something good before to invest more money with professional platform such as Tradestation and Multichats. I look forward to hearing from you. Kind Regards.
Amibroker is an excellent choice and its developer is one of the best. You can do things in Amibroker with a few lines that will take you hours of coding in R or python.
I like it. Have used AMIbroker for over a decade and it is still better than me :^) AFL has natively done everything I want ... (except multiple email address alerts - no biggie). Marcin is tops in my book for support. Courteous, prompt and knowlegeable. Good investment. Go for it. T200K
