I'm not a programmer, but just curious how much work would be involved converting 700-1000 lines of EasyLanguage strategy code into a personal...
Same learning curve here, but I'm probably more stubborn than you. My walk forward logs are sitting at +20% YTD, but i've extracted just over 1/2...

I have no programming or advanced math skills but I'm still surviving as a retail daytrader. I have hired programmers though. To each his own I guess

I didn't mean it as a random bet. What I meant was that even with a perfect entry, you probably won't get to that $20 target. Not sure what you...
@Maverick74 Right. Like risking $1 to make $20 on Google stock. A good trader knows how to differentiate fantasy from reality

Their business in not to crack code. I wouldn't worry about it. You're overparanoid. You can't create every resource yourself. People need other...
On the retail side for auto/algo trading, Multicharts is hard to beat. They've gone beyond reinventing the wheel. I trade intraday, and MC...
