Brief description of trading system:
See review in July 1999 issue of "Technical Analysis or Stocks & Commodities." The software has a direct interface with the Investors FastTrack mutual fund and stock database. User can design and backtest robust trading systems that use relative strength to give specific buy and sell signals. User can build trading systems that include: market timing, vary the number of funds or stocks held, select from a wide variety of stops (including, moving averages, trailing, SAR parabolic, rate of return buy and sell). The software allows automated optimization of relative strength ranking period. A detailed trading history report is generated that shows results of all historical trades and summary information on every fund/stock purchased.

The software can perform an 11 year backtest of trading systems in under five seconds. A very detailed trading history report is generated. An 80 minute training video is included.
|
This product is ahead of competing products for these reasons:
From a product review in the July 1999 issue of TASC, "This is easily the most elaborate fund switching software we've run across, and it's be worth the time to check it out." The software package has been available for four years. We have incorporated dozens of suggestions from our customers. The software is very easy for the beginner to learn but has advanced features for the most sophisticated investor and money manager.

We are constantly updating the software and most upgrades have been free to our users as a simple download from our web site.
