Steve, Thank you for your comments. I do have a fair amount of experience trading equities and index futures. The purpose of my post was to kickstart a discussion on how to use Amibroker as a tool to make money , admittedly a little obliquely.
With the notable exception of Dimitri, posters are mainly sharing programming tips rather than working ideas for profit-making. I'm just trying to change things up a little (and hoping I've missed many nuggets that people will point out!).
