Re: [amibroker] 1-2-3 Setups (corrected)

[Joe Landry]

Patrick - Thanks again.  Have no fear, I did not trade on yesterdays scan.  I'm hunkered down in this foxhole in Houston and not going to lift up my head just yet,  although this morning promises a better outlook @ + ~50 in DJI futures fair value.  That is until the automated programs start to pound it down.  VBG..  I have a hard time converting from being an investor, read "long" person,  to taking the opposite position.  I have a lot to learn and it doesn't really suit my disposition.  I'm looking at folioFN or gurufolios.    On automated trading - I know there's cadre on this forum that's working with automated training on AB, but what about this. Did you see a 4/16/06 WSJ article on the use of supercomputers in trading?   Here's a paragraph.   Supercomputers Speed Up Game "Today, computers can spot and capitalize on tiny price discrepancies in milliseconds, such as a difference between a stock listed on two exchanges separated by an ocean. Banks, hedge funds and other big investors have direct feeds to exchanges that bypass brokers and let them trade much more easily and often."   Seems that global mergers like NYSE and Euronext will reduce the differences c'ne pas?   Thanks for the information on Conners/Cooper. I'll probably follow up on that, although have not been able to home in on the particular package at Trader's Press.   Will try eBay also.    Was wondering how you thought these setups would backtest?      Thanks again for your generous support.   In gratitude  Joe ----- Original Message ----- From: NW Trader To: amibroker@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, May 22, 2006 9:35 PM Subject: Re: [amibroker] 1-2-3 Setups (corrected) Hi Joe,   You sang my praises too soon.  I've discovered that in piecing together the code to distribute, I grabbed some include files which conflict with the other variables set in the scan.  Consequently, the watchlist management and/or other parameter choices don't function as they should.  Attached is a corrected (and hopefully correct) AA for the 123 and 1234 setups -- I made this one selectable to include the snippets I posted earlier.    Apologies to all for the mess up.  Hope this gets there before too many waste too much time on my error.  Just trash the AA from last night.   Peace and Justice   ---   Patrick         ----- Original Message ----- From: Joe Landry To: amibroker@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, May 22, 2006 6:15 AM Subject: Re: [amibroker] 1-2-3 Setups Good morning Patrick....Hope things have settled down for you in the NW.  Seems like you're on the board a bit more than in the past months.   Your 1-2-3-4 script is a fine piece of work and promises to yield good results.   I've  just ran it against my  ~3200 stock "universe" and I must say the 73 issues that result in the screen look very promising.    Would you point me to the underlying method by Conners and Cooper?   Best regards Joe   ----- Original Message ----- From: NW Trader To: amibroker@yahoogroups.com Sent: Monday, May 22, 2006 1:36 AM Subject: Re: [amibroker] 1-2-3 Setups Hi Lal,   If you are referring to Larry Connors and Jeff Cooper's 1-2-3-4 See the attached for a long version of the setup as a 1-2-3.  I leave it to you to code a short version and post it -- OK?   This code has a few of my tweaks for parameters that I've found helpful to modify, buy it is set to default as a pure 1-2-3.  It will also allow you to send the results to a watchlist for tracking -- it is one of the setups I regularly use (tho not with the settings originally described by Connors and Cooper).    Enjoy.   Peace and Justice   ---   Patrick         ----- Original Message ----- From: klal25 To: amibroker@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, May 21, 2006 2:42 AM Subject: [amibroker] 1-2-3 Setups Hello, Has anyone coded 1-2-3 Buy and Sell setups in Amibroker and is willing to share the code?
