 Anthony --
 I use:
 http://www.terabyteunlimited.com/image-for-windows.htm#IFWFEATURE
 If you click on Download, you can download a trial version.  Sorry, I don't 
 know what the limitations are on this version.  I have, and use, the complete 
 bundle including BootIt NG (for disk partitioning).  $49.  There is a 
 learning curve (but not nearly as steep as AB).
 
 Another popular one is:
 http://www.acronis.com/homecomputing/products/trueimage/
 I used a previous version of their Pro line, Backup  Recovery.  It also has 
 a trial version.  It was easier to use than I4W above.  But I have used I4W 
 for many, many years, so I just stick with it.  
 
 Also, Terabyteunlimited doesn't charge for updates.  Acronis does.

 Thank you everyone...
  
 Keith,
  
 I am using windows Vista home premium...I can not run in Repair mode...I 
 have exhausted all methods I can think of to repair the OS..
  
 There are several / many Services that can not be started no matter what I 
 have tried...I have not been able to update the OS through the
 windows automatic update service for sometime 
  
 I do NOT have all installed program disks...
  
 Are there any free disk Imaging softwares that allow what you suggest ?

 Before you attempt to do anything else, make a complete image of your hard 
 drive.  Make sure that your disk imaging software will allow you to recover 
 individual folders and files as well as the entire image.
 
 Then see if you can run your OS installation software in 'Repair' mode.  If 
 you can, you may end up fixing what ever your problem is, without needing to 
 reinstall any software.
 
 If that doesn't work, maybe you might have to reinstall the OS.  Are you 
 absolutely sure that the only solution to your problem is a complete 
 re-install?  Positive?  Absolutely Positive? If so:
 Just because you have copies of all your installed programs does NOT mean 
 that you can merely copy them onto the newly installed OS.  
 
 You will have to re-install almost all of your programs.  For this you need 
 the Original installation programs, including protection keys, either on 
 disks or saved elsewhere.
 
 Good luck,

 BTW, I have been using PC's since the very first IBM ones.  Probably owned a 
 couple of dozen since then.  The only time I have had to reinstall an OS was 
 when I lost my first HD more than 25 years ago.  Since then, I make drive 
 images and/or use other work arounds.

 Hi,
 
 
 IMO, before to format, save your My documents files ( it's another name 
 under Vista, the file containing all your personnal documents), save your 
 bookmarks ( IE or Firefox), save your Outlook settings (address book 
 contacts, settings accounts) Emails as well if needed, but they are on 
 ISP's server. 
 Save the other application files such as AB, into c:\Program Files. Your 
 formulas, your databases, etc. are there.
 
 Then format the disk, and start from scratch, install vista. Don't forget 
 the drivers.
 
 Install all your applications. Printer and gadgets...
 
 Restore your My documents, and AB formulas, AB databases.
 
 You can do a todolist of the actions before to start. You update this 
 document as and when you did it.
 Next install you update your technical notes, the order to proceed, the 
 things forgotten. It's a good way to never miss a step.
 
 When everything is running fine for a while, you know what is worth to 
 backup from time to time. :)
 
 Best regards

 I do not think just backing up the internal hard drive will preserve all

Re: [amibroker] Re: Amibroker commissions in other currencies.

2010-09-09 Thread Aron Pipa
Use buyprice and sellprice :

Spread = 0.0002;
Buyprice = close + spread;
Sellprice = close - spread;

 Hi,
 
 Thanks for the tip. I am actually using those specifications already, one 
 needs to detail the margin, the value of a pip, etc in order to get 
 appropriate order sizing and accurate results. That part works fine. The 
 problem is that there is nothing there related to commisions or -more 
 specifically- to the currency they are expressed in. The currency field in 
 that information window works fine to translate everything to the account 
 currency... everything but the commissions! 
 
 So far the only idea that comes to mind would be to use as account currency 
 the quote currency (for example JPY for backtesting USDJPY). That would 
 produce accurate results, but it would be a little bit of a pain, and would 
 require changing the account for every currency pair with a different quote 
 currency.
 
 I am sure there has to be an easier way to do this.
