Re: MAJOR FLAW in SYSTEM TESTER
Take a look at AmiBroker. Does everything MS
does, and permits testing with multiple stocks, as well as use of script in
coding. All for the outrageous price of $60.

Yes I believe for beginning investors or traders MS is a
great product,also to do Technical analysis by hand MS is great (if
you don't botherthe crashes now an then by moving some object).
But ones you want to dosome real advanced system testing then you are
left with one hand onyour back.M.-----Original

Short: Cross(Mov(C ,18 ,S ), Mov(C ,3 ,S )
