I fixed my data integrity problem with new RAM. For those computer savvy, the machine was passing memory self-tests perfectly fine, but things...
I'd consider any "magic" numbers to be parameters. Things such as thresholds values, time ranges and intervals, or anything else that over the...
So it's like a mantra that doesn't get repeated enough: an indicator is not a strategy.
Do you know of any such algorithms generally that don't require any parameters? I haven't heard of such stuff; even moving averages have periods...
It's pretty much diversifying your portfolio based on indicators. I can understand what you're saying, and I can imagine it'll help. I still...
What do each of the signal types mean? For example, H&L Filtered is completely bizarre, but I wanted to get an idea of what the strategy is...
Wait, is the idea here that they can trawl news feeds and make financial decisions from them? Or is it to use the technology for parsing language...
I look at the thread from time to time and I'm trying to figure out what's going on. I'm stupid and shameless; stupid in that I can't figure out...
I only asked because I wondered what resolution of data successful swing traders used these days. When I first got into this, I had assumed that...
I don't know what your system is at all, and I figured you wouldn't give details, but I wondered one thing. It looks like you are using some...
I've been experimenting with Ninjatrader and noticed that for the swing trading backtesting that it does, it's using the opening price. So at...
I suspect this has something to do with all the posts on here I see about using price action, and that the only indicators people need are price...
To distill what others are saying: An indicator is not a trading strategy. I'm still in the theoretical phase of playing around, but I can...
Then you'd have to act on it. Is there enough time for that too? I don't see that getting addressed when people pulling that stunt. It sounds...
Something I have now seen more than once when looking up trading strategies from an indicator looks something like this: Enter long at today's...
I think that was part of the point of the original paper picking on MACD. Given how poor it performs if you execute it based just on the...
I am thankful for this thread, since I was trying to implement MACD for myself since there is a lot of documentation on it. The paper addresses...
Here's some more stuff I've been seeing that anybody else considering this should be thinking about: 1. Data integrity. When I'm looking at...
I have scribbled something together to view the indicators I wrote, but it's very incomplete. I'd rather spend time studying charts and trying to...
I've been playing with Eclipse's SWT framework. The issue was that somehow Swing never quite registered with me; it might now. SWT's big claim...
