Back Testing - Wealth Lab

I am now n the back testing stage of development and have been using Wealth Lab to do the testing.

Yet another program language to learn...

Although initial testing has shown the system to be 79.8 accurate with a positive expectancy. :) Now that's a good thing!

Waiting for Oanda to send over a wad of data so i can go back ~12 months with the back test and get a more statistically accurate result.

If you need Oanda data just send em an email and ask. It is not that expensive and worth getting the correct result.

The joys of Java

well after some playing with java code and the big fat book i bought i have got the jist of how Java works.

Moving from VB6 to java will not be as bad as i first thought.

Now taking the system form my head to java code will be the fun part.

The beginning of an automated Forex trading bot

After a few months of testing forex strategies I have decided to move to the Oanda API. This will give me total control over my trading and allow testing in real time.

Thinking it can be done and doing are two different things...

I have vast experince in Visual Basic 6 and database programing I just need learn Java... Time for a few books.
