Stocks & Commodities V. 25:8 (76-86): Traders Tips’ by Technical Analysis, Inc.
Product Description
Traders Tips’ by Technical Analysis, Inc.
Editor’s note: Most of this month’s collection of Traders’ Tips are based on Giorgos Siligardos’ article in this issue, “Building A Trading Template.” Other contributions are on a topic of the software developers’ choosing.
TRADESTATION: BUILDING A TRADING TEMPLATE
Giorgos Siligardos’ article in this issue, “Building A Trading Template,” describes using an Excel spreadsheet for managing a portfolio of stocks. The trading rules are roughly based on the trading rules developed by a group of traders known as the Turtles. The rules allow for only long positions (no short sales). The following code simulates a trading history using Siligardos’ rules. The simulation is done entirely within TradeStation.
eSIGNAL: ENTROPIC ANALYSIS OF EQUITY PRICES
For this month’s Traders’ Tips, we’ve provided the formula “Entropy.efs,” based on Ron McEwan’s article from the November 2006 issue, “Entropic Analysis Of Equity Prices.”
The formula parameters may be configured through the Edit Studies option in the Advanced Chart to change the number of periods as well as the color and thickness of the indicator line. The study is a nonprice study by default. To overlay the study on the price window, hold down the Shift key and then drag and drop the indicator pane onto the price window. Figure 2 shows a sample chart.
