[amibroker] Re: System Performances

Hi Yuki, Thank you for your thorough reply. While I agree with a wide bid/ask spread and orders appearing and vanishing at incredible pace, I still think that having some kind of stop-loss measure is a valuable strategy. IMO, just as likely as you stop out lower than 3%, you can stop out higher

[amibroker] Re: System Performances

Postscript: I did not mean to say that 3% stop loss is the universal best solution. I meant that having a stop-loss order is the best way to preserve your capital. --- In amibroker@yahoogroups.com, "intermilan04" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi Yuki, > > Thank you for your thorough reply. > >

With a 3% stop loss you can have the "Big Boys" eat you up each time you place the stop. Making your position stop out each time. And on the real down side you can have them bring the stock under your position making your loss 5% too. Personally one needs to do what makes them comfortable, howe

Hi Mark, I apologize if my understanding of a stop order is wrong, but here it is: When I place a stop order (not stop-limit order), the order is invisible to the market. Once my stop trigger is hit, it appears to the market as a market order. If my understanding above is correct, I need not wo

Re: [amibroker] Re: System Performances

IMHO, The stop loss should be based on market dynamic, not a % of instument price. Then, you would use the stop loss to size your position to limit the loss to an acceptable portion of your portfolio. Millowena On Tue, 18 Apr 2006 11:58:57 - "intermilan04" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > Hi Yuk

I have both weekly and daily explorations and systems. Rather than going into 'settings' every time to change the time frame, is there a way to do this in AFL? I tried doing this with the "TimeFrame.." commands, but I get odd results in the system tests. I also tried #include to load the set
