[amibroker-ts] Re: System optimization philosophy?
Hello Brian Siddha, Since money management seems to have more statistical importance for making profits than buy/sell signals. Don't you believe it! In the beginning was the signal. On the first day, God said,*Let's evaluate* and saw that it was good. On the second day, God looked in his/her wallet/purse and said,*Now how much shall I put on?* etc. MeBrianB2 O:-) --- In amibroker-ts@yahoogroups.com, Brian [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Interesting replies. Thanks! Since money management seems to have more statistical importance for making profits than buy/sell signals, does it then make sense that the optimization focus should be primarily on money management? And then (secondarily) optimizing the remainder of the system around the money management (stops, scaling in/out, etc.) portion of the system? For example, I first develop a mildly optimized basic buy/sell system. I then integrate money management into the system and then optimize the money management portion. Only after that do I then optimize the remainder of the system. Does this make sense in your experience, from a statistical analysis standpoint? Or is this a matter of simply using something like IO (which I am still learning how to use -- does more comprehensive documentation exist somewhere??) since it tests all dynamic variables at one time? Since I am not yet up and running with IO, these questions may have more importance to me than otherwise. My main problem with IO right now is how to get it to use all symbols, and not just a single symbol, for testing. No matter how I set things, it seems, it always seems to default to the current symbol. Is there a solution?

Hi Padhu, i haven't yet got there but i'm in the process, through Interactive Brokers. You should be able to trade on IB's IdealPro platform. Minimum trade amount is 20,000.

[amibroker] Re: HELP! Save Quotetracker data in AB local database
I'm having a similar problem, although I'm using the IB plugin for
backfill:
I have created a database with local data storage enabled. Adding a
symbol to the database, I set the plugin to get 30 day 1-min
backfill. So, after having pulled down the 30 days of data this
should be stored locally. Save database and close AB. Load up AB
again, but change the plugin backfill to 1 day. Then, when selecting
the symbol only 1 day of data is shown - backfilled from IB.
Shouldn't this be pulled from the locally stored database?

[amibroker] create custom weighted index
Hi, hope you could help me in creating my own custom index. I have 8 stocks that I would like to include in the index, and each of the stocks have their own weighting in the index; O= (Open of A * 42) + (Open of B * 60) + (Open of C * 231 ETC...) H= (High of A * 42) + (High of B * 60) + (High of C * 231 ETC...) L= (Low of A * 42) + (Low of B * 60) + (Low of C * 231 ETC...) C= (Close of A * 42) + (Close of B * 60) + (Close of C * 231 ETC...) V= Volume added together Is there any smooth way to create this with the weightings? I have found the following info: A sample formula could look like this: Code: AddToComposite(C,~myindex, C); AddToComposite(H,~myindex, H); AddToComposite(L,~myindex, L); AddToComposite(O,~myindex, O); AddToComposite(V,~myindex, V); You would need to copy this formula into Automatic Analysis window. Click on Filter - choose appropriate category you want to calculate index from, then click OK. Now click SCAN. Then choose View-Refresh All menu. In the ticker tree you will see ~myindex ticker.

[amibroker] OT: Need technical advice with a Web page
Can someone explain to me exactly how they have (below) encoded a requirement for me to communicate with their computer to simply perform a copy operation from my clipboard to my application? Is there any way around this? At the following link: (if you have a Japanese capable browser) http://www.tse.or.jp/market/STATISTICS/06.html you can find the 33 TSE industry groups, how they closed both the morning and afternoon sessions. For years, I have been quickly copying and pasting this data into a .csv file that I then import to AB. I copy all four columns, then paste into Excel, then copy only the closing value column from inside Excel, and paste it over the other three columns. (Something about the table prevents copying of individual columns, but I easily put up with the tiny extra bit of work.) This gives me a line chart in AB by the way, because OHLC are then the same. Over the weekend, however, they have apparently revamped this site. I can copy just like I used to, but when I paste, I am alerted by my firewall that my computer wants to connect, repeatedly, to some TSE computer (as well as to localhost). Since I never had to do this before, I tried blocking it via the firewall, but it just freezes Excel if I do that. Finally, I allowed it, and it works *almost* like before.

Re: [amibroker] Re: OT: Need technical advice with a Web page
That works, thanks. Do you get a warning box after the file-open request complaining about two missing .css files? I do, but the file opens anyway, and I'm able to copy the one single column I want anyway to the clipbord, and paste it with no problems. Disadvantage: The old way, I could paste directly into the target .csv file, then copy one column and paste it to four columns. But with this method (from one htm file to the target .csv file) I cannot paste all four columns at once, but first have to do one, then paste over the others. I still want to know why my clipboard is calling www.tse.or.jp for a paste command into an Excel .csv file. I've been doing this with various sites for years, including sites where I had to use the Paste Special - Text operation. I've never had an outbound connection alert on something like this -- ever.

Re: [amibroker] OT: Need technical advice with a Web page
Hi Howard, The fiscal year ended in Japan (for most companies) on March 31. So there are a lot of changes that usually surprise us on April 1. ^_^ For years, I have had no trouble copying this data and pasting it, selecting a single cell in the file I want to copy to, getting a four-column-wide copy, which I then quickly adjust to suit. No problems, until today. But the TSE site was extensively redone over the weekend. Tonight, I cannot do as you say you can do (which baffles me, for sure). I did try the Paste-Special - Text before posting my first note. I get all the rows that way, but no columns -- all four fields come out as a single column, which then makes separation of the numerical data (all I want) all but impossible. Absolutely nothing new on the box. This is a working box, not a toy, so I don't tinker with anything unless I absolutely have to, and of course I have a backup ready at all times in that case. When I try the regular Paste command, that gets the job done, but apparently it is calling the TSE for a .css file that puts some special formatting in the Excel file, formatting that I discard anyway, because I save as .csv, which will not accept certain types of special formatting. There are something in the neighborhood of TEN or ELEVEN connection requests going out. The first and third are definitely identified by the firewall (Kerio Personal latest) as www.tse.or.jp. They are both HTTP (Port 80). The rest are all localhost requests to okay port 1657. And Kerio pretty much stuffs my machine if I reject the connection requests. I have never, ever, come across anything like this before. I have found a workaround however ... and that is simply to disable all traffic via the firewall, before pasting. There is a delay of a very few seconds, which I never had to put up with before, but nothing hangs, as it does if I try to refuse each connection request as it comes up from the firewall. But I find it extremely strange that you can apparently do this without needing to fight anything. I suppose I could make a permanent rule for these, but I'm wondering what the heck is going on.

Yes, you can safely ignore the warning box (click OK). Can't help you re. the firewall. I do get the same firewall notice and when I deny connection it still pastes indeed. If you can write some VBA you could automate and speed up all your copy/paste activities. Tha's what I do with various web data I collect: - save the webpage - open in XL - run my one-click macro to process/copy/paste anything anywhere I want in the blink of an eye. You can also suppress any warning boxes etc. In case you're not familiar you can start with Tools - Macro - Record New Macro to record your routine and work from there. If these are daily routines then that's definitely worth looking into. -treliff --- In amibroker@yahoogroups.com, Yuki Taga [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: That works, thanks.

Disadvantage: The old way, I could paste directly into the target .csv file, then copy one column and paste it to four columns.

Re: [amibroker] OT: Need technical advice with a Web page
I have a free open-source add-in that can grab that information for you. The add-in, documentation on its functions, and sample templates can be found in the files area of this Yahoo group: http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/smf_addin/ For example, one function allows you to grab table cells on a webpage. I used this formula on the English version of that page to grab each element of the table: =RCHGetTableCell(http://www.tse.or.jp/english/market/STATISTICS/e06.html ,G$12,bt_print.gif$F13) ...where G$12 is a cell I was referring to to tell it which column of the table to pick up and $F13 is a cell I was referring to to tell it which row of the table to pick up. The bt_print.gif is just a string it searches for on the page to position itself before it starts looking for the nth table row on the page.

KR Michael. ** Special Note (AS OF 3/4/07) ** I have also noticed within the SP a NEW GICS sector code of [65 Financial-x-Property Trusts] LINK http://www2.standardandpoors.com/portal/site/sp/en/au/page.topic/indices_asx200/2,3,2,8,0,0,0,0,0,0,3,0,0,0,0,0.html However, both the GICS map and ASX listed companies fail to show this new GICS sector yet. LINK http://www2.standardandpoors.com/portal/site/sp/en/au/page.topic/indices_gics/2,3,1,7,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0.html LINK http://www.asx.com.au/research/companies/index.htm No doubt a new GICS map will be released sometime this month and changes to ASX listed companies will follow suite.

I want to add a few blank columns to my exploration where the columns will
have headings as given by me but data cells will be blank, to be filled up
by me in the csv file to be created by me when I export the exploration
data to csv.
What to write in the exploration to create such columns?

Re: [amibroker] EXPOLORATION TO CHART
Hello,
Use Plot syntax instead of Addcolumn. Also specify the chart color and
style.
Cheers

Re: [amibroker] OT: Need technical advice with a Web page
Yuki, No problems here in copy/paste data from that website. (Copy from Firefox, Paste to OpenOffice spreadsheet) Do you have automatic updates switched on for windows? Are you using Firefox or Internet Explorer? (Has IE been updated at all?) Because when I try and copy/paste with Internet Explorer - It FAILS. When I paste as unformatted - EVERYTHING goes to the 1st column. When I paste as formatted - EVERYTHING goes to the 1st cell. When I paste as HTML I get some extra cruft about document source (The website address) pasted in the top cell and the rest of the cells are pasted ok (ie 4 columns). Suggest you try Firefox before anything else. KR Michael. Yuki Taga wrote: Hi Randy, This seems to work just fine, thanks. But ... it doesn't solve the outbound connection attempts.

[amibroker] Re: create custom weighted index
The sample code did not work. Nothing happened when I tried to run it like that, so I don't know how to continue from here... --- In amibroker@yahoogroups.com, carlacash26 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, hope you could help me in creating my own custom index. I have 8 stocks that I would like to include in the index, and each of the stocks have their own weighting in the index; O= (Open of A * 42) + (Open of B * 60) + (Open of C * 231 ETC...) H= (High of A * 42) + (High of B * 60) + (High of C * 231 ETC...) L= (Low of A * 42) + (Low of B * 60) + (Low of C * 231 ETC...) C= (Close of A * 42) + (Close of B * 60) + (Close of C * 231 ETC...) V= Volume added together Is there any smooth way to create this with the weightings? I have found the following info: A sample formula could look like this: Code: AddToComposite(C,~myindex, C); AddToComposite(H,~myindex, H); AddToComposite(L,~myindex, L); AddToComposite(O,~myindex, O); AddToComposite(V,~myindex, V); You would need to copy this formula into Automatic Analysis window. Click on Filter - choose appropriate category you want to calculate index from, then click OK. Now click SCAN. Then choose View- Refresh All menu. In the ticker tree you will see ~myindex ticker.
