Metastock trade system testing
Hello!
I've got some questions about system testing in metastock and I hope somebody can help me. 1) If we have two securities (stocks) in metastock, can we buy/sell one stock in accordanse with some indicator's signals from another stock? |

Petr,
Yes, you can reference another stock (or an indicator value on another stock) to make a trading decision in Metastock. The most common usage of this ability is for pairs trading. |

oh, I would tender thanks to you, if you said me the key world in help or function name, which helps me to find information about it.
And I have two more questions: 1) How I can use different signals for take profit and stop loss? 2) How I can make signal for take profit, if I want to use calculation data only since buy signal? For example I've gotten buy signal and in calculation sell signal uses only data since buy signal. Last edited by Petr; 08-05-2008 at 01:43 AM. |
