JBT is an auto-trading framework. While it has full support for strategy back testing, forward testing, and optimization, it's not a full blown *strategy development* tool. There are other packages out there which focus on strategy development. JBT's job is to interface with TWS and IB servers, run the strategy, submit orders and track executions, handle connectivity issues, and automate a host of other aspects of algorithmic/automated trading. JBT will not help you decide which indicators to use, where to put entries and exits, or which stocks/options/futures to trade. As such, almost all the discussions in this group have been focused on the technical aspects of the framework itself, rather than the strategies which it can auto-trade. In software terms, we "decouple" the auto-trading framework from the strategies themselves. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "JBookTrader" group.
