Dear Trainers,I only trade S&P related ETFs. Currently I am trading SPY. I would like to back test my strategy where I sell 50% of SPY position when it moves up, crosses, then closes below a specific envelope and repurchase it 50% (i.e 100% of portfolio) when you crosses down and closes above a specific indicator. Then I would like to draw the equity line of that strategy.Look forward to your assistance.Regards,Azam

The address where to place the file does not exist probably for Stockfinder version 5. The folder trees that I have is C:\Users\(username)\Documents\StockFinder5\My Files\ and then I have the following folders: Backup, Code, My charts, My conditions, My indicators etc...Could it by in the My Files folder?

Dear Bruce,Thank you for your swift reply. I watched the videos and got the attached indicator in the indicator folder. I also pasted the SPYHourly.csv into almost all available folders but the reader somehow could not read it. Kindly tell me how to fix this issue.Regards,Azam

Thank you Bruce for the file. I could not get the file to open as a chart in Stockfinder. Do I need to write a realcode program to open it? If there is a readily chart, I would highly appreciate it.Regards,Azam

I have an issue with the intraday data that I have downloaded when I upgraded to Platinum. On the install, it says approx. realtime minute data file is 4.7 Giga. However, when I downloaded from two different computers, the file was only 320 mg. The Hourly data I am receiving is upto July 2010 which is far below the maximum 5000 bars that is set in the data manager. I called and they said that I should uninstall and reinstall the files. It did not work. Could it be that your servers are downloading a truncated file? Is there a log that you can check out? Also, if you can kindly send me a csv file for SPY containing Hourly data. I highly appreciate it.Regards,Azam

Thank you bruce. It is still not behaving as expected so I sent it to technical support.

I have just tested a buy when William AD crosses X and Sell when Williams AD crosses Y. Then at the bottom I entered a trailing stop condition to "Exit all At Close" zero bars from now when 5% retracement occurs. I kept optimizing the result until the retracement was "0.2%"!!! while getting spectacular results. When I exported the data for analysis, although I STILL like the system, I am getting drawdowns up to 8% and Worst Exits up to 5% How can that be if the retracement is set at 0.2%!Look foreward to your assistance.
