Steve,

Thank you for your comments.  I do have a fair amount of experience
trading equities and index futures.  The purpose of my post was to
kickstart a discussion on how to use Amibroker as a tool to make money
, admittedly a little obliquely.

With the notable exception of Dimitri, posters are mainly sharing
programming tips rather than working ideas for profit-making.  I'm
just trying to change things up a little (and hoping I've missed many
nuggets that people will point out!).
