Is the BIDU system as easy to set up in Tradestationas AIG ?
If so, could you provide some setup instructions in the premium
section along the lines of those for AIG?
While the parameters are clearly posted, not all of us have the
TS experience that you guys do. This is why some simple
instructions would be very helpful.
This means you will be adding 2
Moving Averages and 2 Pivots. The two moving averages you are
looking to add are Simple Moving Averages and the Pivots you will
find under strategies and they are titledPivot Reversal LE and Pivot Reversal SE. So you will
add the 2 averages on the chart and then the 2 pivots. The
system buys and sells on MA Crosses and Pivots. So if you are
short because of an MA cross and get a Pivot buy then you will
close the short and go long until the next Pivot or MA cross for
short (please note on the chart after the Pivot buy their was an MA
cross for a buy but we didn't take that because we were already
long). I attached a screen short of this happening. If
you have anymore questions you can email me directly at
thomas@breakpointtrades.com. Also since we are using Simple
MAs for this system I think TS has code already in their for the MA
crosses so out of the box you can run this strategy
automated.

Many thanks.

The systems do take some familiarity with Tradestation but I think you will find them easy to set up. You see the parameters on the BIDU page here: http://breakpointtrades.com/premium/viewer.php?nl_id=29
