Steve,
You ask a question. Someone answers in a way that he feels would be
helpful, and you insult him because his answer is not the one you
want. Please show some courtesy to people trying to be helpful, even
if they do not satisfy you who have given them nothing positive in
return.
You are showing a lack of understanding in that you don't know the
right questions to ask in order to understand if AmiBroker is the
right tool for you to dive in with. If people answer in a way that
you think is beneath you, consider that if you ask an ignorant
sounding question, someone, might just assume that you are in fact
ignorant and want to help you understand what you don't know.
I know one trader who doubles his money every week. He does not use
AmiBroker or any other sophisticated tool, just CCIs and hand drawn
trend lines. He understands the flow of the markets and works hard
all day at placing high reward/risk trades and is a very good trader
(emotionally). I know other good traders that take a month to double
their money --also with simple tools.
Could they be using AmiBroker for generating the charts and
indicators and make these outrageous results? Yes, but you would be
none the wiser for knowing that a half dozen traders were making
fantastic returns using AmiBroker in this way.
AmiBroker is a good value tool for making it possible to try out a
large range of trading styles.
It is stable and well supported by the developer and the user community.
If you don't already know how to make good money, AmiBroker is not
going to do it for you.
However, if you have an idea of how to make money, Amibroker is a
tool you can use to test your ideas out without losing all your money
on a bad idea.
If you don't like my reply to your impolite response, save your
fingers, and just suck it up. Learn that this is a board that
supports each other and helps the ignorant become literate in
AmiBroker and AFL use. This is a valuable resource, treat it as such.
Dennis
PS. The super traders I know are polite, humble, and generous
people. These must be important traits for super success in trading.

I ask the questions I want answers to not the ones I think should
be asked...

Steve,
What you are asking is similar to an engineer or architect
pondering whether "AutoCAD will make my next design successful?" or
an accountant/business manager wondering if "Sage can turn my
business around?". Perhaps Geosoft might allow a geologist to find
an ore deposit?
You don't "make good money" purely because of any software, not in
any profession. Success *always* depends on the ability of the
user. A well programmed application merely allows the user to
express him/herself to their own personal maximum potential whilst
keeping the complexity down to acceptable levels in order to do so.
Trading software is no different to any other business application
in that respect…from MS Word right up the scale of complexity.
So if Rakesh didn't answer your question then he answered the one
that you *should* be asking.

Subject: Re: [amibroker] Is anyone here making good money using
Amibroker?
Thanks Rakesh Sahgal for not answering my question...
You say: "Your ability to make money wont be constrained by this
software, if thats what you want to ask."
No - that is not what I wanted to ask - if it was I would have.
I asked what I wanted to which you did not answer.
All I asked was whether anyone is doing well with this software -
save me your pithy obvious comments.
You also say: "Your success is a function of how good a trader/
investor you are" - really I had never thought of that...do you
normally speak to people as if they are stupid?

software a license to print money?" , no it is not. Your success is
a function of how good a trader/investor you are. Is this software
comprehensive in terms of the features required to analyse the
markets? Barring a few shortcomings it is fairly comprehensive in
it's coverage and if you consider it's price it is very good value
for money.

Hi,
I have been recomended to use this software by a friend.
Please can you reply to this if you are making good money with
Amibroker...(I mean high % returns per year here)
Please accept my apologies if this is an inappropitate post for this
group - I have just joined so am unsure if this question goes
elsewhere.
To summarise I am looking for some success stories - I see a lot of
technical talk but how well are people doing financially with
Amibroker?
I understand many hold privacy as a high priority so a simple "it
works
for me" is great!
Just looking for some confidence boosters before I jump in!
Thanks all,
Steve
