Hi,
I'm looking for a software program that will allow me to thoroughly
backtest several trading stratgies I have.
I would like the utility to scan through a list of, say, 500 stocks and
ascertain how profitable the strategy will be.
Rules would be, for example:
BUY SIGNAL: Wilder's DMI crossover and Wilder's Parabolic Stop &
Reverse change of direction
SELL SIGNAL: A trailing stop loss on the low of each day + an extra
0.5% of the shareprice for "leeway"
OR
SELL SIGNAL: Price crosses through moving average
I will be testing lots of different variations and combinations.
I already own esignal, so if there is a plugin for this, that would be
great.
Many thanks,
Alex
