is ASX some sort of future index? if yes, try http://elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=83604
I think the ASX is the Australian Stock Exchange. I assume that these methods would work there as well. I think your biggest problem with applying these methods to the ASX will be finding a screener for the Australian stocks to create your final universe.
yes ASX is the Australian Stock Exchange. For Screener, wouldn't Amibroker do the job with its Scan/Explore function ? I thought Mischief and few others traded the asx with this system. The other thing I could look at is to trade the US market with EOD data. Hows does this system perform with regular stocks and futures. thanx again.
The Final Universe contains ranked stocks from previous culling. In other words, any stock which cycles a minimum of five times in six months over a period of 6 to 8 days for a minimum 20% gain in Price, fits the criteria for inclusion into the Final Universe. Of course, the Fundamental Culling parameters (Float, EPS, Price, Average Daily Volume, etc) apply first. Since most of the stocks contained within the Final universe have resided there for some time, one may or may not see them populating the Stocktables.com list. Once in the Final Universe, I only remove a stock for failing to maintain rank. If you find any of the above post confusing then I encourage you to review the material presented in the Journals as this question has been discussed on numerous occasions in previous posts. Any Market on Any time frame provided sufficient liquidity exists. - Spydertrader
LEND is being acquired by private equity firm Lone Star U.S. Acquisition LLC for $400 million. just a heads up Thanks for posting your up to date list. =]
Hi Mischief, I am trying to set up automatic trading. I installed Amibroker and used a script you posted earlier, but the script does not have the IB controller code in it. e.g., ibc = GetTradingInterface("IB");, etc... Could you please post your current script or send it to me in a PM. I will be glad to repost any modifications I make or send the modified version back to you. Thanks!
yeah it would be really nice if Mischief or anybody else could share their amibroker scripts. On another note, As I mentioned earlier, I have been reading through the Journals and now I would like to start papertrading and then eventually move to trading an actual account with a seed amount of $5000. This is the money that if I loose, wont hurt me a lot (I consider it my tutorial fund). I have been a long term trader for the past 1 and half years and have been using money management, position sizing and pyramiding to preserve and grow my capital to a good size. So the BIG QUESTION is which method should I start with: Journal 1 Journal 2 or Journal 3 I also noticed that a lot of links and files have either expired or superseded including Welath-lab scripts. So ur ideas will be most welcome. cheers.
The answer entirely depends on how much of the material you absorbed and / or internalized. If you understand the concept of the FTT / Channels and Gaussians, then by all means start there. If not start with Journal I, and move into using indictors (Journal II) as your guide. In other words, only you can provide the answers you seek. - Spydertrader
