This seems to me like a substantial effort. You would have to come up with some sort of language to specify the entry/exit conditions, to use indicators, and to do any intermediate calculations (if any). Next, you would need an interpreter to translate this "special language" script into Java and/or directly to byte code. This would add a big, fat layer to JBT. Perhaps I am not following what you are suggesting. The way I understand it is that you want to see an equivalent of TradeStation's EasyLanguage in JBT? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "JBookTrader" group.
